purplesyrup Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 Really add a badass look to the car for sure, awesome stopping power now (you find that out because there is a certain way you have to break in the ceramic pads) But definitely worth the 5ish hours it took Before After Then heres the process
79 cutty Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 They turned out nicely! What brand did you go with? I went with SSBB and love them! I have had them on the daily with the larger 24's on them for about 3 years now and the pads look almost new still! Firm believer in letting my cars do my talking! You can't rush quality, it doesn't happen overnight. Quality takes time and dedication, but the end results more than pay for it.

79 cutty Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 The kit I found is called powerstop. They are awesome. It's amazing how big a difference they make, and even more crazy how fast they cool off! My youngest son decided to grab them once after we parked in tge garage and I was grabbing something out of the back.....no burns, and I was shocked so I grabbed it and it was barely warm!

purplesyrup Posted October 8, 2013 Author Report Posted October 8, 2013 Yea I love the look they add to the car Day shots
79 cutty Posted October 8, 2013 Report Posted October 8, 2013 I wish people with the big ass rims on old schools with drum's would realize how much just stepping up to something like this does for the look of the car! You don't have to go the whole step to some insanely expensive larger rotor kit like wildwoods to at least get some benefit, and the look alone is worth it!

I agree, i've seen few old schools do it and it looks bad ass
