OMFG thats hot and 1500 for your hood is bending you over without lube lol i got mine redone for 450 with paint hit me up and i will take you out that way which is in the ft worth area.

 

ok so need some help guys.. i took out the brake pads today... the rotors are warped.. so the pads have alot of metal? left

should i just machine the rotors and put em on.. or should i go with ebc slotted with yellow stuff?

 

Get the other rottors there better then stock

 

I would upgrade to the slotted rotors with pads, in the end it would be cheaper. Check the exclusive sponsered sales in the classifieds they have a lot of good deals.

 

Wasup! Welcome to SL! Hope to see you at some shows/meets soon.

Go with some drill/slotted rotors if possible. You can find OEM size drill/slotted rotors on eBay for a good deal. good luck with them!

 

Don't go with drilled they crack over time slotted ;)

 

^depends on brand but yes slotted is nice

 

just got done bedding in my rotors and pads! i went with non slotted or drilled.. got the best stuff pepboys had.. i know i shouldve saved up and gotten ebc or rotora. but these rotors are made by wagner.. just not sold under their name... the car steering doesnt shake anymore when i brake and they do a pretty decent job. now just gotta get the car painted and do all the little bitty stuff.. does anyone know how to update the gps on a avic-z1 by pioneer?
