Please read and help
Hi Justin - You have posted a comment and included a go fund me site, if people want to donate they will, if they do not they wont. Given you are new to the forum and your first post (however well intentioned) is requesting money I dont quite know what you were expecting. WRT advice for raising funds I would suggest a localised approach in the community where the individual has had a direct impact and therefore continued future benefit might generate a greater reponse as people a) know him b) can see the results of his work

New owner looking for CVT advice
Wotcha and welcome - Not too many of those motors about and I haven't heard of anyone tuning them. A manual setup will set you back around 3K for bits. Given the type of car you have I would potentially look at selling and buying a manual model as these A lines do appeal to a specific market

EBC Pads fitment issues...?
I have used EBC pads for quite a few years on different models, every so often I would try different brands normally as a package deal with discs as well. Recently (last 3 years or so) I have been finding the fit out of the box is rubbish and I am having to file the edges to get the pads into the guides - It is like the hydraulic cutter is not cutting the metal backplate at 90 degrees but more 85? Now for the OEM standard replacement pads at £25 a set I was putting that down to price point vs quality but having just splurged the thick end of £250 on some yellow stuff pads I had higher expectations, 7 of the 8 pads (Fr & Rr) need filing to fit. Any one else come across this of just me? For the record I have had no issues with performance of the pads themselves, although I have just replaced Godspeeds on the front of the daily with yellow stuff so will be interesting to compare back to back - early result are comparable braking performance wise but the Yellow stuff seems to be a lot dustier

Wheel Spacers?
both TUV approved, both high quality AL so not much difference there. WRT the cooling ducts, may work but I wonder how often you would need to be stripped and cleaned to remove the brake dust clogging up the grooves?
