    Ideally I would like to get Brembo for my own car but unfortunately this is only a 4 pot calipers. Looking for a 6 pot 365mm rotor Possibly from r1

    Exactly what I want to do! Was going to go with a JDM tail light, but why spend your money when one LED bulb and switch is all you really need.

    @The Critic stopped by today and we got a couple of things done :):
    • Oil change and catch can empty (collected 4 ounces since the last drain 10k miles ago)
    • Inverter coolant drain and fill
    • Inverter pump replacement (preventative maintenance)
    • Fuel pump replacement (preventative maintenance)
    Some pics:

    Inverter water pump done with just shifting it;).

    Good to always share a garage with @The Critic for an afternoon (y).

    No film and that mileage will be on someone else’s watch;).

    I’m Prime for an upgrade on the 14th(y).

    I had to pull my catch can off as the dip stick wouldn’t seal:(.

    So I just replumbed it back as designed ;).

    I’m selling it anyway at the end of the month, so I’ll let the new owner decide if they want a catch can or not(y).

    What do you mean the dip stick won’t seal? Pressure was pushing it out?

    The threads on the catch can dip stick won’t catch on the lid :cool:.

    The threads aren’t cross threaded either:(.

    Just something I noticed when putting everything back together. So I took it out to avoid a pressure differential issue;).

    Not ideal for our 200k mile Prius, but it’ll work(y).

    Not important if you mount the catch can high, but if you mount low, you need the dip stick;).

    Guess where mine was mounted:whistle:?

    But I left the tin can there and will let the new owner know what i did along with give them the old catch can for their review:).

    It’s garage purge time from the Gen3 supplies(y).
