    Got some parts today! Cap, rotor, and some accessory belts. As well as a new thermostat and various o rings.

    The Bosch cap and rotor Im not overly impressed by the quality though. lol

        What would lead you to believe that the quality was poor on the Bosch parts?

          Yeah I'd like to know what's wrong with Bosch Rotors and caps? What do you think is better toes? Just curious as to what you'll say.

                  5toes, why you think you're qualified to review the quality of parts is beyond me.

                  Unless there something wrong with it form the manufacturing, you can't get better then bosch.

                        I remember when my GC's were new and shiny. +1 on their customer service.
                        How much are they now? I want to say I paid $1400 for mine with camber plates.

                              With shipping, shortening, race valved, spherical bearings, race camber plates and powder coating it was $1800ish. Aka a lot.
