Default Just did my brakes. Brembo blanks & Metal Masters.

It's the first time I've done the brakes myself on this car, and I must say I am impressed with the servicability of the design. Swapping pads is no more difficult than changing a tire! It took me about 1.5 hours to do all four corners, and I was lollygagging.

I wonder how I'm going to like the metal masters. I've never used them, and I don't hear many people here talk about them. I guess there's new stuff to be checked out. The Brembo Blanks are nice, but not really any different from OEM as far as I can see.

yes, the blanks are a good replacement for OEM. they are very similiar. only thing i would have suggested for that bling bling effect is a cadium plated rotor.

I'm using the metal masters. I installed them for the expo. My only complaint is they squeak. Otherwise, they seem to look like they will last awhile and work great.

Metal masters are good street/autox pads. They go up in flames (literally) at the track though, unless you're talking about Axxis Ultimates.

Yeah, these are for street/autoX. Now that I know the pads are so easy to swap I'm thinking it'll be no big deal at all to change them should I decide to try a circuit.
