The creaking clutch pedal issue continues to confuse me. I've had it on and off for the past couple years. At one time I had it continuously for weeks, so I sprayed some silicon spray into it and it...
Ahh, should have worded that better. The PZero's were near new (had maybe done 5k), and the PP2's were brand new when I got the car. The PZero's are closer to being worn out than the PP2's, but I...

I recently got my front discs machined to remove some shudder I was getting under braking. The guy came out and used an on-car lathe and did what appeared to be a good job. The discs have...
I didn't physically try to install the Pro60's, but if you look at my post you'll see I made a 100% size template, and from what I could work out, they wern't going to fit.
