Did a few maintenance items, and ran into some headaches recently.

Had a Bleeder valve on one of my front Calipers strip and it was squirting fluid all over why powdercoated wheels. I guess the good thing is you can only see the damage up close. Got a new caliper coated by Mike the Powder Coater, and everything is squared away though now.

Changed my oil about 2 weeks ago and emptied the catch-can. Pretty standard amount of oil. Glad i've got the catch can on the car though:



While doing the Caliper work, figured I'd take some photos of the new wheels finally. Just cell phone pics though, hopefully will get the camera out for a cool shoot at some point.



Side Profile:


And I like how the Pfadt orange shows through the big 22's




Need to get the ride-heigh reset some time very soon (Renegade Performance didnt even set the height evenly on all 4 corners). Probably going to do about 1" lower or so Then need to get it corner-balanced and aligned again. Still looking into getting a racing seat that I can swap in and out for the track. I really want to get more seat time, but cant even fit in the seat with my helmet on unless I turn my head about 30 degrees, or lean like a cholo. Hoping to square the wheels too and get some OEM rears for the front so I can get a new set of tires. My OEM tires are shot.
