Any chance you bought them online and could hook me up with the site? Im having trouble finding the slotted ones after shopping around. Most places seem to either have the OEM ones or big brake kits.

stainless steel lines help a lot also. i'd recommend them as well while youre already in there. i forget where i got mine (goodridge) but not from ecs.

Stay away from Mintex and Pilenga if going for OEM styles.

Thanks for the help,

I ended up with 4 slotted ecs rotors and redstuff pads all the way around.

Went for a drive to break them in and they were really really squeaky.

any ides on how long they stay squeaky?


OH and i almost forgot, i happened to find goodridge ss lines while doing this. buying used cars is such a joy...
