Did you replace the calipers or just get them powder coated?

Yeah the rain kept all my extra curricular activities to a minimum also. You bringing the Boss to snakes at the lake this year?
@Adower: These are the OEM calipers from the GT350R. Same as the GT350, but coated red from Brembo...
Calipers came in and I got a chance to look them over. They are HUGE. I found a few more scratches and Knicks than I would like so I spent a little time touching them up. It is raining so I enjoyed a quiet night inside after the fam went to sleep
Wanted to install these myself but won't have time before Knotts. Taking it to my buddies shop to get it handled. If I can get off work early enough during the week I will pop in and help do the install.

I will text you with the event info. It's a bad ass cruise and all around good day. The wife even looks forward to it every year and she isn't into cars at all.
@iceman302: Dave you gotta bring the Boss my friend. I will bring chocolate milk for your daughter since I owe you breakfast anyway. To be honest now that I have a little one or two to look after I can't blame you for not wanting to drag the kids out for all day run. They are work bro!

Got the car up on the rack for the caliper install. If you ever have the chance to get up under your car, or someone elses GT350, spend some time looking over the underbody. Ford did some good engineering with this car. I could stand under it for an hour and admire the thought the went into it.
Also got my coil covers back from my good buddies paint shop. had them done in DIB to match the stripes. My problem now is figuring out how to apply color to the recessed "powered by ford" and borders. Anyone have a creative solution?
these pics were with my ipotato so forgive the quality

I hear you, brother. Kids are a ton of work when they're babies but it gets more and more fun as they get older. Can't believe mine are 10 and 7 already. They had a fun time when we went to Snakes at the Lake a couple years ago.

I have a 6 month old and she's already a handful. After four to five hours I have to hand her off to the wife for a break.

Progress is taking much longer than it should. Hard to get things done with work and a newborn. Gotta get these bled tonight since we are cruising to Fabulous Fords Forever this Friday morning.
Old brakes... Sell them or coat them Deep Impact Blue?

I'm waiting to hear back from my dealer about an R allocation. If they get one then I will sell my car to get the unicorn. Otherwise I see this one staying.
I see your point about keeping the stock stuff though. I am going to do some research at Knotts to see what other people have had done and new techniques for brake coloring. If I see something inspiring I might have these redone. If I am still on the fence I will hang them on the wall as decoration until I can decide for sure

T, stop making it so damn pretty and beat that thing up! Drive it the way it was designed for...on a race track ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)
I'm sure you paid a pretty penny for the painted calipers and valve cover (or whatever they are). You know how many trackdays you could have bought instead?!?! ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

Ian I feel you brother! I am going to the GT350 Track Tour in May down in buttonwillow, so it should give me some seat time in track pack and R model. Then I am going to the 2 day GT350 Track Tour at Utah Motorsports Park in July. When I get those under my belt I will take my own car out to rail on.
By fall this year Ford should have the transmission/differential cooler setup available for the technology package GT350's. Then I can hot lap her all day without worrying about tripping any temp sensors. When I do I will hit you up. I made contact with one of the instructors from Hooked on Driving and a few from Track Mustangs Online so I can get shown the ropes.

Glad to hear that you have hose trackdays planned. You could/should also look into running with NASA. They provide instructors for level 1 and 2 as well. Their trackdays are, in my opinion, organized very well. Their instructors are real racers and I have had a great experience with their instructors in the past.
I also liked Trackmasters' trackdays as they weren't crowded and also provided instructors for beginner levels. Look into other local clubs outside of Ford specific events because they will likely be priced better and you'll learn a lot from their instructors. Definitely let me know when you start hitting the tracks...I would love to come out and play ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

I'm hearing the 2017's are the ones to wait for? Tech and track packs available together from the factory?

That is correct. Track package is now standard. Tech is optional.

Yes they are combing the two. Sticker price now is higher though and your staring at basically what the track pack cost. Then add 3k to get the electronics/convenience. Or have a 2016 tech pack and spend a grand or two to add the coolers that ford will be releasing. In the end both routes will cost about the same...
Got the brakes on and bled. Took a couple pics at 3am before we left for Knotts. If any of the so cal guys are out and about in their GT350 shoot me a PM
Few of my buddies rolling
