Stay away from the POSI's if you axe me.

For DD and some track use, you should try the stoptechs. They work really well. You can get them at RRE, they go for 75 for the fronts, and 65 for the rears.

haha if you gonna change out the brake pads, might as well just do the lines and fluids too...i run technafit lines with ATE super blue and hawk hps..and the braking feels great..definitely not as dusty as the stock ferodo

Posi-Quiet pads from Centric are like stock pads. That is what they are intended to be.

The Stoptech pads are designed to be sportier. OK for street and a track day too if you respect the brakes. little dirtier than the Posi-Quiets, can deal with a higher temp range, not a noisey pad.

Remember roughly what RRE charges for SS lines, break fluid, and pads change Mike? Understood that price of pads varies.

Sheit, Budlightmike drives a mustang, posts homo-erotic drivel in my threads _and_ drinks Bud Light and I am nice to him. Having AP Lust is nothing to hold against you!

Thanes for the info, still considering. Pads + labor or just pad pricing. Front and back

JW why not do your own brake job? Its not that hard, well probably the first time around, but after the first time around it will be like slicing cake for the most part =).

True sir, yet I lack the adequate tools . Plus I'm very time restricted.
