make sure to brake them in correctly before you do any hard stopping.

I didn't know brembo had performance I thought they were just stock rep.s. How much did you pay for the brembos? I will for sure get AEM pads.

nopi has Brembo blanks which are OEM, or drilled or slotted for like $145 a pair.

when i think of the name Brembo i generally think performance.

well folks, i got my AEM pads and Brembo rotors put on today, and it's nice to have good stopping power and no shaking ass warped rotors again. as for less brake fading and whatnot, i won't know until i actually finish breaking them in, and pushing the brakes a little harder. but what i can tell everyone is that if you're thinking of doing preformance brakes, GO FOR IT. the rotors look all shiny and nice behind my wheels. i'm so happy.:D :D

I'm trying to save up for nice rotors and calipers and pads. Are those brembos that you bought only for LX-i and SE-i? I thought I saw that on nopi. I don't want to get those and they won't work on my LX.

Well since no one is buying stuff from me (big 3G sale) I will probably have to buy brembo vented rotors and AEM pads and no calipers. I don't know if I want to chance it driving to Ontario with bad cv joints. I sure hope my g/f has been saving up b/c I don't have that much money and I still need to buy more stuff. CV shaft (comes with both joints) should be like $70 + core. And I have a torn boot so I probably should fix that too. And if I have a bunch of cash then I will get a flex pipe welded into my downpipe b/c my exhaust is pissing me off. Help me out and buy my stuff please :bow:buyers:bow: I will make deals with people.


Oh and those brake rotors are for LX-i and SE-i models only, I checked.

damn dude. sorry. you could always do a brake conversion up to a lx-i or se-i model though...:D
