  1. It's all good 92LEX....No debate, just a difference of opinion...Happens all the time... I see your points as they are written in many articles of discussion on this exact topic.... My take on rotors...For Braking power - D/S rotors is where it is at......Life expectancy stock flat rotors will probably hold up longer.... We all are after better braking for safety and performance...Gotta go with the D/S rotors and factory brake pads...Can't go wrong.... I beat on my SC daily too.....Tank of a motor....

  3. Stock rotors have more braking surface then just drilled rotors, right?...92LEX your ok in my book but I respectfully disagree with your statements... D/S rotors are bling bling but also give you the best braking possible...There is more air that is allowed to flow within the rotors and pads which aid in cooling and braking.. Also the variations created with D/S rotors simply allow the pads to grip more in comparison to stock all surface rotors... I am stating this from actual experience and not something I read...It is what it is... I previously swapped in front 4 piston Supra TT calipers with flat surface Supra TT rotors and the braking is not much better then my stock 2 piston calipers with the D/S rotors.... I had to dump the Supra calipers because of fitment issues with my rims......I did get to test the braking, not much of a difference....I am a firm believer in D/S rotors for more then just the bling bling factor...
  4. You guys need help...... :chairshot: But so do I...... Gas :P
  5. 92Lex you crack me up..... booty.....
  6. Drilled and slotted rotors combined with OEM pads is the best you can do to increase braking power in your Lexus..... I bought D/S rotors off Ebay four years ago for my SC400 and I have had no problems what so ever since. My braking power increased maybe by 30% when installed with new OEM pads......I was amazed at the difference over stock...... I will never go back to stock rotors.... I also bought D/S rotors for my Toyota Landcruiser 2 years ago and again my braking power increased noticeably...2 years later no problems what so ever like rotor cracking, warping, etc...That goes for both the cars.... The drilled and slotted rotors are great for daily drivers....For race track use I would say they may break down prematurely and crack or warp as read in the articles due to the extreme heat and caliper pressure involved in that type of use...... Look at it this way if you are unsure......Porchse sells D/S rotors on there newer selling cars...If they were so bad I really believe Porshce would not chance the liability and use them....right or wrong? Brembo is probably one of the best brake and rotor companies around....
  7. Dallas got better because of Romo's play and not T.O's... All I remember is T.O. dropping some timely passes and talking smack to the media all season long... I also remember Romo bobbling the playoff's game winning and season ending feild goal....Man that sucked, felt bad for the guy.... I forgive Romo because the I don't think the Cowboys would have even made the playoffs without his play... Yeah T.O. dropped some passes this year because of his broken finger, maybe...However, he is prone to dropping passes thru out his entire career... He likes to look ahead and run before actually seeing the pass into his hands...That could be one of the reasons he runs so effectively after catches....I don't know.... Anyway, next year should be interesting, one way or the other..... ;)

  9. I would have taken Bledsoe over Rex in a minute...Give Drew a little pass protection and he is a decent QB...Give him pressure and he is almost as bad as Rex.... T.O. is a player no dought...However, does his on field play out weigh his off field distractions...Team, attidude, destruction of coaches, media attention...Look what he did to Philly? If he shuts his mouth he is an asset...Opens it, could foul the team into playing like crap....That's my take... Like we don't hear enough about T.O. in the media, we got to talk about T.O. on the forums too. :chairshot: . I honestly think he is trying to pull off a Dennis Rodman, get as much media shock hype to draw attention and make himself become famous..The tatoo's will be flowing soon, watch.....Marketing tactic's 101.......

  11. Rex is gross man!!!!! Throw a good to average quarterback on that Bears team and they probably win that game...Two fumbles under center and a few stupid floating picks is a joke...Rex, Rex, Rex you must seek another profession...Should have played and started backup QB Greasy at mid season..... 92Lex - I too am a Dallas Cowboy fan since I was a little squirt...Hope they get a good coach for next year..Keep or dump the head and mouth case called T.O.????
  12. Am I missing something here? What does condoms have to do with wine? No biggie..... Well maybe if you get hammered off the wine then you may be wearing beer goggles and may need a condom or something for the less then desireable female you are about to get with...Maybe?... Trojen....
  13. Rex is Gross man!!!!! However, I do think he may come up with a good game today....
  14. For those football fans today is Superbowl Sunday.... :) Who do you think will win? I am taking the Chicago Bears because I think defenses win championships...Plain and simple.... More interested in the Halftime show or the funny commercials? Me the commercials.....
  15. T-Bone ;)
  16. Back pressure caused the car too run rich? WOW, that does not seem possible... Like putting a banana in the tail pipe, that will not turn the cats red and will not cause the car not to fire and burn gas...Intake is still bringing in air, fuel is still being delivered, and the ignition was still firing... Is your car repaired and running perfect just from changing the clogged cats?

  19. For serious technical questions check out Lextreme.com or Clublexus.com for codes, etc....Use the search function... Let us know if it is the coils that is really the culprit...
  20. Jesus juice , cheetos, and sailing you guys lost me on those....I think this word game is a little to complex for my liking....Let me give it another go.... Sailing? hmmmmmm Wind
  21. No change what so ever in sound when deleting the two smaller cats...Infact there was only maybe a 10% increase in sound when I upgraded to my S&S Headers..Upper exhaust changes have very little effect on sound on the SC4's....The biggest change in exhaust sounds will be from your mufflers, Y's and center main cat. swaps or deletions... Getting a little off topic here...Sorry 94BLKSC400
