got the rotors and pads on today
Its the best brakes Ive ever had...these things make me stop on a dime, "with 9 cents to spare". I absolutely love these PowerSlots and Nissin pads! Granted Ive only driven on them for about 30minutes but that was plenty for me to know that theyre good.
There is no waiting period for the pads to heat up because theyre not semi/metallic...theyre the carbon/kevlar mix. Superior braking is now mine Big thumbs up on these babies...now I just gotta get me new koni yellows and my springs and I'll be set... Just an extra little tid-bit...by the time I get my new suspension I will have paid about $2000 for my car this month alone...geez...I'm FLAT broke now...   |

glad to hear they're workin out for you. I'm planning that same set-up on my car. Definitely going with Nissin/AEM pads, but as for the rotors I'm still debating between Brembo and Power Slot. I carry both through my company, so I'm still trying to decide which to go with.

Raybestos makes a line of rotors and pads GUARANTEED not to leave brake dust... if that's your concern get those

well I got the rotors for $15 (I beleive they were stolen...but they were brand new in the box...no flaws what-so-ever) and I got the pads for $50
You can buy this same setup "legally" for $200 plus shipping and around $100 for installation if you take it somewhere to have it done (I did only because the price was taken care of as payback from a loan ) |
