Hello,
I'm back, I took a while off from my Type R FN2. It has been sitting around half a year now on the yard, since I lost my rear left brake pad compound which damaged the entire caliper/disc assembly. (First the compound went, so I was braking metal on metal, pad metal fell out too and then there was noting between piston and disc) As I did not have the money to fix this right now, I put the car away for some time (Needed to spend my money elsewhere)
Long story short
I hauled the car over to the shop last week and they fixed it, new discs in the rear, new pads and a new caliper on the left side, and so on (Oh, got a new clutch too). So I am Vtec-ing again :lol: Just wondering how can I loose my brake pad compound ? I don't get it They now installed TRW if I remember the brand correctly. Everything is working fine now, actually I am pretty happy with the car. Only downside I still have is the rear left wheel was covered in metal dust due to the brake failing which rusted and the wheel is now dark brown Its pretty hard to remove that stuff.
