Project Mu B-Force Brake Pad was a good DD pad, less noise, way less dust than stock. bites like stock and sometimes a bit better. below is the pic of the current pad tread life:  and  I guess it still has like 40% or 30% left? anyone know how many % on that pad? Here is one problem, This pad seems ate your stock rotor pretty bad. below is the pic, check out the edge  are these normal ware for 33k Evo? or its because of the pad? Thanks for the help. Evoegg |

Your calipers are so red and shiney! Bet they look new when you wash them! BTW some pointers....change your lines to SS lines and fluid to motul if your going to be doing brakes. And after a proper bleed job your brakes will be 100 times better then just pads!

True my next weekend Evo job is bleed my brake + SS brake line =). BTW I always got this question... when people order speedbleeder.. why you need 9 of them? I know 2 for each brake and 1 for the clutch... but are they using the speedbleeder at the same time? flushing 9 places all at once? .. aint we have to do them 1 by 1 in order?  ?? just wondering hehe..

Evoegg Don't get those things... they suck I had them on my car and I ended up having to change them all out back to the stock ones. Just grab a friend to help you and get ready for a leg workout! The clutch fluid is the same as the brake fluid... had my clutch line bled and it really made a difference in the pedal feel. But there a little bleeder to bleed the clutch too...so that's why they say "order 9" |

So those speedbleeders are actually replacing stock cap? can we just plug them in for the bleed and change back to stock ones?

Actually speedbleeders are great....there are two kinds...Ones made with aluminum (cheap kind) and ones made with 303 stainless steel that are cnc machined which are much more stronger and won't crack as mentioned above......I've used them in the past before for 3 years and never had any trouble and just recently I put them on the EVO....
