I assume you are Brandon and that is Brian, good deal man. Lauren was telling me all about it. Great build for the MONEY.
Finally ordered my Dobinsons MRR kit, should be ready to go this summer!!!
You will not be disappointed
That is correct. Couldn't be happier!
First post in this thread but I have some catching up to do since I bought my rig in late December.
- replaced all the clips on the door cladding so they stop flapping in the breeze
- replaced OE radio with Kenwood DMX809S and replaced the lower door speakers that blew up
- installed seat jackers on front seats
- tossed in some Toughpro floor mats
- removed leather from third row seats and tossed the carcasses
- fabbed up some storage boxes to take the place of third row seats kinda like these: Third row storage solution
- replaced all the halogen interior and exterior bulbs with LED
- installed ScanGauge II with this mount from Etsy
- installed set of Firestone Destination X/T in 265/70/17 on set of DX4 Beast in 17 x 8.5 0 offset
- installed OE running boards so my short wife can climb in (truck didn't have them when I bought it)
- replaced buggy original gauge cluster with refreshed cluster from Tanin Auto Electronix
That should be everything to this point.

Did a handful of things this past weekend.
- replaced PS front fender liner
- installed missing inner splash guards
- went through what felt like an entire tube of grease lubing the six zerk fittings on the front and rear driveshafts. Thanks PO!
- installed SAIS bypass

Is this the plastic piece that lines the wheel well? If you have any good documents or videos with all the hardware this needs besides the fuzzy partsouq images, please send it to me. Mine were missing when I bought it.
It is and I don't. All of my hardware was still in place so I just reused most except for a couple clips that can be had from your local parts store. There's about 5 plastic body clips scattered throughout the liner that attach it to the inner tub and there are 6 or so torx screws that attach the liner to the fender skin from underneath. HTH
How hard was it to stuff those tires in? I have 35 Kendas and I've been pondering going to the 37.
The green EBC were awesome for my wife and her late breaking. Also had the noisy vented rotors with them. She pretty much set her OEM Honda pads on fire. Took her a while to notice the rotors hissing because music set to 11.
Throwing in my 2 cents about rotors from my endurance racing experience and having a set of drilled/slotted on my daily.
1 Endurance racers use smooth calipers, if its good enough for them its probably good enough for you.
2 the vibration when braking caused by the slots and the noise caused by the drill holes completely spoils an otherwise smooth driving car.
3 those slots shave the pad which can be nice for consistency if the pads are so hot the surface is getting melty but it reduces the pad longevity to probably 40% what it would be on smooth rotors
4 the drill holes will crack and shorten the life of the rotor. the idea is they are there to release gas pressure and increase surface rotor contact area but NASCAR doesnt even use them, noone needs them.

Do you plan to go back to smooth rotors in the future on your daily?
