diabloadsit · 12-17-2006, 07:51 AM

Just ordered the brakemans for the front I have dba 4000 for the rear and Hawk HPS pads all waiting for the fronts to come in I just put on my cobb SS brake lines and racing fluid cann't wait to feel the diffrence.

P.s. guys from SOJDM are awsome hooked me up with a deal on the rotors.

Congrats on the purchase! The weight savings, and after being driven in two cars with them, I am very impressed by these rotors. I am just curious if you would recommend them for a daily driver, as they might need more heat to work at their optimum.

i have a friend who daily drives with them and it's fine. I think it has to do more with what pads you run than your discs.

actually it has everything to do with pads and what material the discs are made from. That is the whole point behind Bob's rotors.....

They work just fine as a daily rotor. Remember - the stock brakes suck! I have HPS pads and they have better cold stopping feel than stock. But forget all that - it's the acceleration that will blow your mind.
