So how are these pads anyway?

Obviously asking someone who has used them and is not selling them...

Not a sales gaff, but you want to upgrade all 4 for sure. Upgrading just the fronts will cause unbiased distribution of braking power, which in turn can make the car unstable under some moderate to heavy braking...

(waiting for the Instigator to chime in)

if your stressing the car laterally (hard corner) and are hard on the brakes with pads up front that grab harder it will try and slow the front down first pulling the front of the car into the apex while the rear of the car will be trying to swing out. The opposite of this is called trail brakeing used by motogp guys by downshifting hard and dragging the rear tire.
Imagine your sliding (or just stressing) around a corner sideways, now imagine the front of the car coming to a stop, the rear wants to swing, or pendulum(sp?) around right?
With my toyota pickup i had an adjustable brake proportioning valve ( i could control which brakes had more power) If i set the front to full power i could hit the brakes hard in a corner with so much force it would actually unweight the rear to the point where it would slide out.
Equal braking is key.
hope this helps, kinda tuff to get my point across without a diagram

oh yeah. You just need to answer the following question and the answer must end with a remainder of zero. Pi is equal to?

well pi has yet to be calculated to its end or to have found a comon repeating string. It has been calculated to 50million digits downloadable here http://www.angio.net/pi/piquery


the 33 digit of pi is 0 as is the 51st 55th 66th 72, 78....160 pi truncated down to 160 digits ends at 0


so when do i get my turbo kit?

That is my point! It has no remainder of 0 AND it will keep going. So, therefore you do not get your kit.

Truncation is not acceptable.
