PGT Posted July 15, 2005 Author Share Posted July 15, 2005 100% improvement in feel. It seems like the brakes work 'right now' vs. getting half-way into the pedal before they bite. I am having to re-learn brake points, as I am stopping too soon now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim malach Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 cool are they still the stock rotors or upgrades, cause I was think of ordering some slotted rotors for mine while I'm at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGA-C-YA Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 That's great news for the braking improvement. The pads and lines will be my next mod. Was it hard to bleed the system after the install? Did you use a power bleeder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you use a power bleeder? I used my credit card. I had it in the shop for the up-pipe install and the guys took care of me. I was planning to do everything but the UP/DP myself, but they made me a deal to do everything since I would drop the car there for the day. cool are they still the stock rotors or upgrades, cause I was think of ordering some slotted rotors for mine while I'm at it. stock rotors. I am not sure you would see any improvements on a normal vented rotor upgrade (unless the car will see track time). Now, going to a lightened rotor like Ion sells might make a difference.

agctr Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Thus far looks like a VERY tidy conversion. Thanks for posting UP. Would be interesting to know what the time difference is if u have AutoX'ed the GT previously. Ada///M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGT Posted July 15, 2005 Author Share Posted July 15, 2005 Adam - no auto-x for me (yet). It's purely for backroad fun...once the STi springs and new wheels go on, I hope to be done for a long time. I ran against a Carrera C4S this morning on the way to work and he had to work hard to pull away (long straight road). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
