Yeah I don't see how it would make it worse. I used one for about 10 minutes until I somehow fucked up the o-ring for the catch can and it wouldn't hold a vaccum, but those first ten minutes were glorious, just keep the reservoir full and pump until the bubbles stop, it makes it impossible for air to get back into the line before closing it.

Can confirm. I was struggling with the slave cylinder first time around and I bought the same vaccuum bleeder, broke after 20 mins but that was the most productive 20 mins the entire time haha.

The pump bleeder sucked donkey dick... I should have believed RJ. the 1.5 ton HF jack isn't big enough for the monster truck stanced integra... both are being donated to the MM garage.
The Integra held up well to 8 sessions of redline work. One of the Spec Miata guys kept asking me if I had thrown a rod yet... :lol:
The brake pads are getting toss or kept as backups/street pads.... not that the car is going to see any street work. I'm picking up a set of Toyo RR take offs for the future... i'll burn these street tires down to the ground some more. :thumbup: Hopefully I can skip out on this wedding thing on June and make that summit event!
Waiting on real pictures:

I'll take suggestions on a brake pad compound... Carbotech is ball'n expensive these days. With the discount... I'm looking at Performance Friction 97 Compound (need to read up more) or any of the Hawk compounds. Something that will hold up with the Toyo RRs, work until these street tires are done, have "good" pad life.

I would suggest PFC08/ or 06s, 97 is a really old compound and the 06/08s blow them away in pad life and feel. 01/11s if you want ZOMG STAHP LIKE A MAZDA 3 power. :wink:

IF you get the RR's, step it up to something above the HP+. Heard good things about the Hawk DTC-60's, I love my Cobalt XR2 (I'd go XR3 if I were in your shoes)... but god damn do they dust, and the dust is damn corrosive. Have surface rust on my Rota's haha.
edit - wait, R-comps after your 1st track weekend in 123021930 years. Reminds me of a young DJ Fitz who had Hoosiers for his 2nd event
I'm waiting on the tires, I just lined up a source. calm down fool... these street tires aren't cooked yet.
Also, the tires and HP level in group one was SILLY this weekend.

...yep. Driver and passenger both walked into their respective ambulances when EV got to the scene. New car safety is really amazing.
Oh, and a brand-new-ish blue WRX managed to spin a bearing... but you Subaru people keep giving us Eurowhores shit for owning what we do. Really, keep it coming. :lol:

No issues from the slow ass derp! Several of the WRX kids were missing from class once because their cars weren't "running right"
The "dude... I looked at my boost gauge when I came through turn 3... It said 16psi... That's all my 400 hp" were the guys I drove with
My thought was "why are you looking at your boost gauge in turn 3?"

What the fuck. :lol:
I think if I was an instructor I would want to be in a low hp car. Money doesn't buy brains.
Or you make them drive the whole track in 4th gear
