I can't believe people actually listen to him. I'll give it to him, some of the beats are cool but it's not like he actually makes them.

OEM parts are not always the best quality

Upgraded how? Different pad compound or are you swapping out rotors and calipers? Brakes are a component that are surprisingly easy to make worse by "upgrading." That said, all OEM brake systems are garbage and should be replaced ASAP.

>>14201748
It depends on what you mean by upgrading.
All parts are a compromise. OEM brakes are a compromise on dust, noise, and all temperature performance

Ops never modded his car before. Some shit that manufacturers shell out is just cheap shit since 3rd party alternative can do better

I have a foxbody. Opening the door and dragging my left foot stops the car faster than the stock brakes.

Most big automakers now shell the least amount of money possible for cheap 3rd party parts

Americunts ruin their cars by ricing them with distasteful 3rd party shit.

Europoors ruin them by using cheap Chinese knockoffs.

Sounds like a shop I used to work at. Some guy bought it out and changed some policies. No more customer provided parts and no modified vehicles. We used to do alignments and lift kits on trucks, was actually like 20-25% of our business at one point. Lost those customers overnight. I left the company shortly after, last I heard they laid off a bunch of people and had to move to a smaller shop.

Some people have the money to buy a business, but not the brains to run one.

30% of the cars that come into my shop are brought in by guys who ordered a bunch of aftermarket parts and then weren't confident enough to install them so they get us to do it. I spend at least a couple hours a day installing bolting on coilovers and wiring in boost gauges, kek

Kill yourself.

No, you keep buying the exact spec tires that came with the car. Forever.
