Front rotors were $1200 on the forums, and pads were $435.
If you do your own oil changes, Mobil 1 synthetic can be had for 7 bucks a bottle in bulk, compared to $11 per for Castrol Edge. $20 a bottle at Bob Smith BMW plus tax!
That Car and Driver article is total BS, and its from 2008.
1. Had my oem runflats removed and they are fine for remounting. Their difficult to remove because of the stiff sidewalls, but if done properly, no prob.
2. Im running non oem tire size setup, and Nissan is going to replace bellhousing under my powertrain warranty.

I remember reading about upgraded transmission oil coolers recommended for tracked cars. Does this help extend the life of the fluid?
