Hi All,
I saw in a post below that the EBC Greenstuff pads are not recommend by you folks.
I am concerned about possible rotor wear with the OEM ATE pads. These OEM pads are just too dusty as everyone knows. So, two questions: What pads should I use to replace my OEMs for good street and expressway performance? And, is this brake wear issue just a dealer thing to net some 'fish?'
My dealer has made no such statement at 20k mi, but I have heard from others that have been quoted with worn out rotors. I haven't measured mine yet, but I will soon.
As for tail pipes, has anyone cutout their front muffler in place of a straight pipe and added a Borla Turbo muffler to replace the rear muffler? If so, how different was the sound level? I'm looking for more growl and no buzz.
Thanks,
