Default My brakes are done finally done.

finally my breaks work fine.
just one concern, my front rotors still getting hot, so are the rims?
could this be a problem during installation?
and could i screw up the rears by putting the hand brake on right after we bleed the breaks and connected everything up?

not feeling the stock red calipers. If the calipers are red, you'd better be packin a serious brake package.

so you kept the 10.3 inch rotor's up front? they don't look like 11.1 inch rotor's.

and brakes get hot its what they do. when you take a peace of metal and spin it real fast and touch something to it , its gona get hot expecsailly if its a brake pads. and metal TRANSFERS heat so its natural for you rims to get hot.

thanks to all the comments.
yea i ment brakes, after i posted it i saw the typo, but it wouldnt let me fix it.
i painted them red, since i like the look of red and black, but the idea was not to show off, but to keep the rust away.
i notice Hawk pads make lots of dust, but performance is great from what i tried so far.
i cant use them hard yet, have to wait around 200-300 km.
GSR coupe thanks again man.
i dont think i ever saw you posting in my threads tho.

Looks good, but I'm not a fan of having brake dust flying everywhere with that air ratchet.
