man those are georgeous.. what did they run about 800 for the set?

I have a lot in them with the Titanium rotor bolts, caliper pinch bolts and mounting bolts but hey..it's only money right?

Thank GoD the dollar was strong back then.

Satin Black caliper paint, a lot of cleaning, dis-assembly, seals and a lot of reassembly.

The high lighted Tokico is a trade secret.

Well worth the results and very well worth it to help out a member who needed them.

HH is a friction rating NOT a brand.

Carbon Lorraine sbk5 are HH pads

The Busa comes stock with HH pads. Don't use GG pads.

I like the EBC HH pads. I'll live with the Noise and the Brake Dust. They stop MUCH BETTER the the stock pads.

since we are talking brakes I have a couple of questions. First, EBC or Galfer? Is there a noticeable difference between the two. Second, EBC makes HH brakes for the rear, I haven't found Galfer HH for the rear. Is it ok to put the green or black Galfer pads on the rear with the gold ones up front. How do I get in contact with the brake sponsor on the board? I sent a pm a couple of months ago but havn't recieved an anwser or a response from the sponsor.
