Cool

Okay guys, just picked up Carbotech XP10 and XP8 pads from a member.

Now I need to turn my rotors and replace my fluid with this Motul RBF600 I just bought. Is there ever a point where we say "okay, I'm done"?????

Awesome! I went to my first track day yesterday at Harris Hill Road (H2R) in San Marcos, TX and through Turn 1 I would see a huge plume of blue smoke. I thought something was wrong until I got to turn 4 when there was no more smoke. Looked it up here in the sticky and found the solution. Thanks guys!

Any paticular brand?
Any paticular style?
A suggested place to buy?
Things to watch out for in selecting parts?
Things to watch out for during install?
Other clues that would be helpful?
This is the high tech catch can setup

Yep, wrong line. I need a larger bottle for mine... seems an oil bottle fits well there!

Crap. You're right. Why didn't I see that? I do get oil in collecting in the bottle though.

actually we're both right and wrong. you want to catch can both lines.

But you usually get more blue smoke from the other line.

While we're on the subject... Krazik, do you catch both lines? I only catch the PCV line and I sometimes fill my catch can after only 5-6 laps (namely at VIR where there are lots of decreasing radius right hand corners). Seeing that you run 30+ minute races, do you ever have problems similar to this? Or do you just run a sufficiently large catch can?
