MICHELIN Tires

I ran the Xice3 in some pretty severe snow this past winter. One day in particular was a big snowstorm... I took every gnarly/hilly minor road I could find... and got home with no drama and some quality hooning. Those tires are magic.

Pros: no drama, quality hooning
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Sachs Clutch kit

  • Engagement smoothness:
  • Noise:
Rating 4.5

I did some extensive research and found the Sachs stage 2 SMF kit. SMFs handle the higher RPM shifts better and holds up to 530nm. You will notice that although the pedal is stiffer, you have more feel. The lighter flywheel makes the engine rev quicker and becomes far more responsive. Of course, you are dropping a significant amount of rotating mass, so your car will accelerate slightly quicker. Yes, it is a little more expensive, and it does sound a little diesely at idle, but if you actually drive the car, it isn't even a question in my mind. I have had mine for around 30k miles, and it still grabs HARD with a stage 1+ APR tune. I ordered mine straight from Germany.

Pros: handles high RPM shifts, holds high torque, more feel, quicker revs, responsive, accelerates quicker
Cons: stiffer pedal, diesely sound at idle, more expensive
Mileage: 30000 km

WILWOOD Brake pads
TheDeckMan
  • Braking:
Rating 3.0

I have run Wilwoods on my Corrado for years with the usual rebuilding every two years. Even with ABS under full braking using the BP10 pads it would occasionally lock up fully and blow a cogged belt off the supercharger.

Pros: very powerful braking
Cons: requires frequent rebuilding

  • Noise:
Rating 2.0

I did go with the Conti DWS initially. Hated the noise they made (see my post earlier). I like the P-Zero much better.

Cons: hated the noise
