What did you do to your M2C today?

Anonymoose · 05-27-2023, 05:56 PM

Few track updates

allinon72 · 05-29-2023, 03:30 PM

Wash and recoat of P+S Dreammaker. Need to get the car out of the garage more…it is truly stunning.

m2ss · 05-29-2023, 03:41 PM

Stunning^^^

What spoiler is that?

ctgilles · 05-29-2023, 03:55 PM

Just dropped her off for VRSF downpipe, charge & boostpipe incl stage 2 map. And getting the crankhub fix.

Thanks.

Do you use the Dreammaker on dry panels or as drying aid after a wash?

Was looking to change my rotors and in the midst the two 5mm hex screws thay hold the rotor to the hub would of course start stripping as I tried to get them out 😒 (24k miles)

Did you happen to tap the hex screws prior to trying to get them out? I just went first by hand it started to strip then I learned you ought to tap a punch with a hammer for example to knock the rust from the threads on the screw.

Gonna have my shop just drill it out this week

No, mine came out quite easily. Maybe yours were previously over tightened…

Certainly possible the shop did that. I’m looking at the tiny hex screws wondering who would even over tighten these but then again they probably just put an impact gun and ran it until it was snug 🫠

well 1 of you in florida and 1 in NY so maybe salt roads and some corrosion on the bolts.

I just had (well still having, car is at the dealer as we speak) seized caliper pins in the back), so I am assuming this is the same with the rotor bolts (which now worries me for when I swap them out that it will probably be like this. Car has similar mileage

Went up to NCM in Bowling Green, KY and had a blast on that track. Always fun to pass Corvettes on the Corvette track.

The track is pretty hard on the brakes but she ran like a champ. Running MPS, Millway Street camber plates (-2.7, -2.0) and APEX EC-7s (265, 295) on R888Rs. The car stuck like glue on that track. Been reading mixed reviews on these tires but they saved my butt on a few corners that I came in HOT. They got a little greasy when really hot but everything stayed very predictable.

Super fun day!

Rub1con76 · 06-05-2023, 04:48 PM

Installed an AA single midpipe on my lightweight performance exhaust.

Choice for the single over the EL was because I like the deelde tone more then the screaming EL.

s4cars · 06-09-2023, 11:29 AM

Was able to drive 8 hours like this, hit 100+ mph and boarded a ferry with zero issues. Super easy to load the bike and kayak since the car isn't tall. Also easily fit two inflatable paddle boards, gear, and bags in the back.

Dude that’s awesome. I’m thinking of that set up for a kayak.

ADDONE · 06-10-2023, 09:35 AM

What color is the car? It looks green.

ShortSides · 06-10-2023, 04:44 PM

Green and gold. The sneakiest best combo?

That's awesome! Still, I have to admit I like having a Telluride for this stuff.

Jayden_F87 · 06-11-2023, 10:01 AM

Got my Madtrace/JQ Werks magnetic paddles installed. I like the longer travel these provide versus the stock paddles, but I’m not a fan of the very plasticky sound. Maybe I should’ve gone for the aluminum version.

Detoxified · 06-12-2023, 07:44 AM

DIY Installed the M2CS Racing style brake ducts routed to the rotor.

Feel free to ask any questions regarding install etc. in the DIY Brake Duct thread post.

200 MILES?!!! Great find and congrats.

I’m curious about your Alpine with the top speed and 0-60 times about the same how do they differ in driving feel? Alpine seems a lot lower to the ground, but interested to hear your thoughts. Thanks! And sorry for the temporary thread hi-jack!

The color is midnight metallic green from inozetek. It looks different depending on the light. Here are some better pics:
