Not impressed with the wagner pads, would use something with more bite. Once I get the car running again, I will try EBC red stuff.

I don't know what the difference between the MX and the QC is, but Santa brought me a set of QC731 so that's what I'm going with.


Paypal sent for brackets as of 4:01am.
Money sent to TCE for lines as of 4:31am.

All that's left is rotors.......

EBC pads were the noisiest rotors/pads I ever had on any vehicle. Hope yours are quiet.

Do you remember which color/grade you had? The yellow ones are not good for street from what I've read.

The break in period seemed dusty that’s abut it. No noises whatsoever. Trying different brands completely personal preference but these guys put their time and effort into making this as cost effective as possible for their friends and members and did a great job doing it.
