    The supra has ended my future and my life

    Sort of be surprised if they have a 7M head in stock though as our cars just aren't that common Brett! Make sure they test it for hardness it take 10 seconds and could save a PILE of grief later on!

    DAMN IT MAN! A cracked rotor!

    A rear isn't quite as dangerous as a cracked front (if it were a front I wouldn't drive it) You can reuse your pads just rough em up on some coarse sandpaper.

    Figgie: I didn't want to run it waste fire and my supplier did me a killer deal on the Dis4's (that and it future proof's it in case I want to go V8 later) ;)!
