Burning Smell Around 75-80mph+
So recently I've noticed a burning smell when I go over 75mph. The gear/rpm doesn't matter (for example, revving high in third or cruising then stepping on it in 5th). The weird thing is I can redline first and second and get to 60mph and not smell anything.
Any thoughts on what it could be?![scratch](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/scratchhead.gif)
Car is a stock motor 88 GTU with RB Headers to a bonez cat to an Apexi N1 cat back.

The pads could possibly be so worn down, they are scraping the brake rotors while braking. It could be the headers... Have you considered wrapping them? Have they been coated with something?? You make it sound almost like you coated them with something you shouldn't have, and just didn't mention it.
