Soleil Mark and I are worried about the JWT because it has been causing him and Jimmy a lot of trouble. They have pulled his transmission three times already and I would rather have a shop mess up than Mark. Tell me more about Corr Performance, are they expensive?

Corr isn't very expensive. I'm happy with my ACT setup and so is Scott.

hey shawn....I put the brakes on yesterday and I've gotta say they are sensitive as hell. However they are squeaking their arsse off right now which they say is normal for the first 500 miles. And after 40 or so miles my rotors already look 10x better. I'd say go with them just after my initial drive.

btw, Jason I'm sorry I didn't call you yesterday. I got sidetracked when the guy with the bike I was looking at called me back, but turned out to be a bust once I got there and started looking more and more into it. Lets try for sometime this week if its cool with you.

which brakes? I'm not very happy with my EBC rotors. They make a lot of noise and get surface rust too easy. At least they stop the car well though =P

BTW my brakes never stop squeaking, it pisses me off.

what EBC rotors you got. I got the slotted and dimpled ones and they make noises. I called EBC and they say its the air escaping which is normal for them.

I went with the EBC red stuff pads. They came with double sided taped shims. If they are still squeaking after 500 miles they are coming off and getting lubed up.
