He did contribute...Donating to this site so you can access the search feature is by far the best mod i have done to my car...

You wont regret it dude..

There is tons of information locked away on this site that you can access just for a measly $20...Good for 20 years..

I've still got my Brembo slots sitting around. USAF_Hydro never did come by and pick them up. It's a complete set front and rear.

Though I would take their advice and go with the blanks. Brembo slots aren't for the faint of heart. I have only about 15,000 miles on my old set, and they ate through cheapy Semi-metallic Napa pads in no time.

They'll stop better than you believe though. My new setup stops the Max quickly, but not as fast as the Brembo did.
