• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Wrapping/striping a frunk with matte or denim paint - Results?

    Martin The Vlogger has a 2022 Spyder RT S2S almost totally wrapped with some funky white and red decals. They seem to hold very well.

    Where do you store your Cell phone??

    My phone is on the holder to the left. My headset auto answers my phone after 3 rings. However, when I see someone calling that I don't want to talk to, I just reach over and press the red end-call button.

    Anyone tried "Speed Bleeders" brake bleeders?

    Thanks for the tips Pete! :2thumbs: I need to study the search section a bit more to understand all the different search options and parameters. :read: Yes I had lots of search results, but as you suggest, I tried reading mostly the replies from 2020 and newer first since I was looking for...

    Thank you so much for posting this. When you do a search on the website for "Speed Bleeder" it comes-up with 9 pages and 256 posts. And that doesn't include all the replies in each post. It took me 3 days to eventually find this post with your reply :clap::2excited: I'll be ordering...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I replaced everything myself, so I saved a lot on labour costs. All the parts are 30% to 50% cheaper in the US than in Canada. That should help you guys somewhat. ;)

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Replaced all three Brake Rotors with EBC Rotors and EBC Double-H Sintered pads. Then I replaced all three OEM shocks/springs with Elka Stage 2 shocks. It was a busy few days, but well worth it.

    What should I look for in a mesh jacket? Any Pros & Cons?

    Interesting thing I discovered this year about mesh jackets. If they are too fitted, air will not circulate correctly. Also more of the hot jacket will be in contact with your body thus keeping you warmer. Don't get anything too tight fitting. I have a Joe Rocket Phoenix 13.0 (3XL) that I...

    Is the Carbon Black RT color difficult to maintain; & does it scratch easily?

    My 2022 Sea to Sky is also a Satin/Matte paint. The day after I picked-it up from the dealer, I took it to a Professional Car Detailer in Dartmouth NS and he applied some Revivify Self Healing coating for Satin/Matte paints. After 2 years the water still glides off. There are no chips or...

    Fitted New Rotors and Pads, now there's weird wear marks! Is this normal?

    Thank you Peter and all. It was just really interesting to see that all marks on both sides of the rotors were nearly unidentical. Like looking at 4 acoustic grams of the same class submarine but with each sub having slightly different mods. In any case, as soon as I install the rear disk...

    Fitted New Rotors and Pads, now there's weird wear marks! Is this normal?

    I basically followed the procedures printed on the back of the Rotor Sleeve below. The EBC website only covers Racing applications of YellowStuff or BlueStuff brakes. https://www.ebcbrakes.com/race-motorsport-articles/bedding-in/

    Fitted New Rotors and Pads, now there's weird wear marks! Is this normal?

    Has anyone experienced this? And is this normal for these disks and pads? With only 5000 kms (3100 miles) on my Spyder I had to replace my rotors and pads due to significant vibration and pulsing when braking. It felt like there was a warped disk somewhere on the Spyder. I replaced them with...

    Looking at dog carriers. Anyone have any advice?

    I researched the Nelson Rigg's Carrier after I read what you posted above. After checking-out a bunch of videos and reviews, I purchased the Nelson-Rigg Route 1 Rover Pet Carrier and ordered the Show Chrome Black Luggage Rack and Rear Trunk Shock. This will provide a solid base to secure the...
