Shall I state this again? I never questioned your ability to be a good father. The question(s) were asked to understand your rationale. There is no "pissing" match. Did I state I was any better of a father than you in the context of this discussion? No. Why? Because I drove my kid around in the same maxima with tons more mods. I never had a problem with the maxima, the mods or driving with those mods. If I admit this, exactly how am I trying to "****" further than you? Or how could you understand my statement of getting another car as more than rhetorical when I had stated I drive my OWN kid in a maxima?

You having other cars is fine. But it was you that directly stated that your kids would be in it. I'll assume how much time is irrevelent. (although you felt the need to specify that)

Was only answering your questions sir

Lines are only 4 years old. Good to go in my book.

Why do I get the feeling Greenman is in here pressing F5 F5 every 10 seconds or so waiting for the flare up?

but the max will see my 3 month old and my 3 year old as passengers (though they are primarily assigned to the saab) which an F1 will never see. and as such i hold brake system mods to a higher standard than other mods. when it comes to strut tower bars, ground kits, 9007 conversions, an air filter, a y-pipe or any other of the list of the more benign mods which don't affect their safety, i will more than gladly accept less-than-top-notch quality in exchange for "availability and cost effectiveness". but my car hobby and "frugality" should not affect or compromise their safety.

maybe goodridge's engineering is overkill for our cars but like deciding where u get ur timing belt from or which shop is gonna grind the cam for ur new motor, i don't think brake systems are the place to cut corners or determine that something is "good enough".
I still have my BlehmCo BBK




with Goodridge lines.....








you should buy it

One thing I do sometimes is reach for e-brake with my right hand. : wftlol: The damned thing has a foot e-brake now. haha
It took me an unnatural amount of time to get used to the Corolla (sometimes I still slip up )

I'm usually pretty good about not having problems with cars, but for some reason the Corolla's e-brake is easy to forget about (probably because the seat position/angle/etc makes you feel like you are sitting in a truck and you just think it has a foot e-brake.

going between floor brake and tree shifter to console brake and shifter and throwing in the occasional console floor combo = the win!
