So I've been looking on r3v for a while, but can't seem to find the answer. Anybody know how to tell if you have Girling or ATE brake calipers? I'm looking to replace my pads, and apparently the pads differ on the two different types of brake calipers.

It should say right on the brake caliper.

Also, I didn't know the pads differed between calipers.

Bastard lol... I picked him in the fantasy league...

As for calipers, take off a wheel and look, it'll be stamped visibly on the caliper.

This could have been bad! Shows the CRJ700 is well built.

So yeah... talk about a clean swap in a clean car...

Posted that a page or so back. I am surprised at how well the 700 held up considering it got smacked by an aircraft with a wing full of fuel. Looks like it wouldn't have even hit if the A380 had just landed instead of having full fuel in the wing.

Dude that S54 is tight! I like the M Roadster seats too. Haven't seen those in an E30 yet.

Yeah, that was a first for me too. That car is put together well for sure.

That thread makes me want an E30 to swap again. But then I remember owning mine, and don't.

E36 S54 though...... mustfindwaytokeepcarregisteredinCOnextyear!

Put it in your parents name, win.

Tried that route before. "If you're doing autocross or track or anything not involving A to B transportation, we don't want you as an insurance liability."

Paying all of my own insurance is a big reason why I don't speed.

Current plan is to just not become a CA resident, and keep parents' house as my "permanent" address.

Oh yeah, I forgot they were sticklers about that.

And the reason why I've (kinda) cut back. Watching your premiums go up $1200/year = not fun. Thankfully, new insurance company doesn't know much about my history. :D

Yup yup. No speeding tickets ever and only one (well deserved) stop sign ticket when I was 16. Huzzah, clean record!
