    I have AP Racing brakes on my Mustang and love them. You will enjoy swapping your pads way less and rotors every other year. Your channel is making a GR86 super tempting
  • @mbarna36
    I just started watching your videos but I appreciate how thorough you are. Good work!!!
  • @PBrooksSawyer
    Ill say it again. Best racer/enthusiast gr86 channel period. You need sponsors man. Inofrmative vid per usual. Im looking to uograde to a bbk kit mid summer. What model of Ryobi impact is that? It had torque settings on it?
  • @Club-Version
    Looks awesome man! Can’t wait to hear your track impressions on it!!
  • @SloJoeRacing
    Them brakes are so 🔥🔥🔥. With these new brakes you going to have to hit them at the last cone lol
  • @kevind_53
    It will be a nice improvement for sure 🚗💥💨🔥
  • @norevlimitr1602
    Bleed the brakes as soon as you install the new parts as air can creep up into the ABS module if it sits for a long time. Its a pain in the ass to get the air out of the ABS as the ports inside the module are only able to be bled when the ABS pump is active. You need a scan tool to activate the ABS with the car sitting still.

    Great set-up. I know Essex had their stuff with $1000 off. I have been using the Hawks DTC-60 with the Castro fluid and stock lines, it works great for me, I don't glow the rotors at all. Then I go home after each race and switch back to the stock pads. I have been tempted with the Essex kit but I also use wildwood on other platform and it is appealing for their price. I haven't checked if Wildwood has a kit for our cars yet(GR86). I can't wait to get some feedback from you regarding the AP kit, I think you are the first one to review them. I wanted to ask you, what is the plan for power? I have seen some turbokits out there and also superchargers like the HKS but again, not many reviews. Only shorts videos from the people that made the turbokits but not a lot from the actual owners.
  • @ZN8BD
    That’s sweet! They really do fill out the wheel. Have you decided if you’re going turbo or supercharger yet? I’m leaning towards the Sprintex kit.
  • @nodrogkam
    The moment you go off into gravel or get a rogue obstacle like a rock stuck in between the caliper and barrel, it could be less than ideal of a result.

    Hey Man, thanks for all the great contents. I enjoy watching you track your car. I recently bought a GR86, in your opinion what is the best wheel spec and tire to run if i do not want to use spacers or roll the fenders. Current camber level around -2, -2
  • Once the brakes have fluid and are bedded in, won’t the loaded pistons keep the pads from rattling? Talking about the “anti rattle” in specific
  • @Stepo901
    Are you planning to upgrade rears accordingly or installing a brake pressure regulator between fronts and rears calipers, also?
  • @jumboshirmp
    For science can you see if your 17in APEX wheels clears with or without your 7mm spacer? I have a set of 17in VS-5RS and APEX claims their barrels are extra big
  • Very very intrigued on how to bed in the pads/rotors with everything outside the car. How did you do that?
