  • Handaling mods are: KYB GR2/Excel G struts, Anti Pogo washers, powder coated brakes and brackets with power stop ceramic pads on Slotted and Cross-Drilled Zinc Plated Rotors, Poly Motor Mounts, rear sway bar. All pretty basic upgrdes. I only upgrade when something needs to be replaced.

    @ditimedia93 brakes are great the powder coated brakets and calipers look great. the ceramic pads are wearing nicley. the rotors are starting to show some rust but are well worth the money. thanks for the comment.

    I belive i point it out on the video. It is the vary top washer that goes on top of the hole strut asembaly. You can see it from engine bay on top of strut tower.

    no there just the stock springs form a local dealer. GMP is General Motors Performance. You might be able to get them from the Wbody store.

    @ditimedia93 Yes a little if i had to say about 10% better in normal day driving. but about 30% better when your really breaking hard. 120 mph to 0 mph is wear you really feel the difference.

    yes I do take it to the track once to twice a year. I have some videos uploaded to my youtube chanel.

    Do your rotors still look as if they where fresh out of the box and how many miles have you put on them

  • @jmrtinez69
    @jmrtinez69  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    they look good for the money they look really good. But are not the same as a really high end brand like EBC High end rotors. They have discolored a little. There is no rust yet. I would say they will be replaced in 3 years or there going to be in real rough shape.

    its your springs and struts which is causing the bouncing. hope this helps

  • @jmrtinez69
    @jmrtinez69  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    New GMP stock springs. Wanted to keep it looking stock.

  • @dumbf7y

  • @313JaySwag
    @313JaySwag 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @jmrtinez69
      @jmrtinez69  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      jdm4stance no just swap with car on ground. I swapped full suspension when I put anti pogo on.

    You are aware that the anit pogo washers are only needed when the car is lowered/Lowering springs, Does nothing for stock height struts/springs...too funny
