Default You would not have to worry about that Gary.

You don't brake late enough for that to happen :^P (J/K). Also, Brembo's and Stoptechs turn poopy brown when used hard. I would rather have the goldish bronze then poopy brown. Get Alcons and have them painted black, I believe the shop can have that done.

Default Do you have any pad material left there? If you go all the way down to the backing plates...

the edge of the pad can hit the rotor hat in some instances.

Cheers,

I was his instructor at Laguna last year and he does hustle the car around the track well and smoothly.

We just like to play around.... hell you rip on me all the time:^)

We are like the Alcon / Ohlins Mafia. Carefull Pat you just might have an un-timely accident:^)

Default I'm going to go pout in the corner now.... :-(

My stoppies have yet to turn brown yet from red. And I MASH on mine...but they do fade. I was using Kerr Frictions, so I may try PFC 97's or Pagid Oranges before making the switch over to the almighty Aclons.

Damn depressed I didn't get to do Laguna. Hopefully I'll be at Fernley.
