ACP rotors and Zeal Endless Pads installed (Pic)

I got my Cross-Drilled rotors and Zeal Endless Pads installed last Saturday and oh man. I know its a little early to tell but there is a difference. Once the rotors warm up and the pads grip, its nothing but whiplash. They work great.
Thanks Tim for all your help. You were very informative and helpful.

These are Tim's (Snook) but mine are the pretty much the same.

DID U DO JUST THE FRONT? OR BACK ALSO?
I'VE BEEN THINKING OF DOING THE SAME CONSIDERING THE DECENT PRICE AS OPPOSED TO BREMBO.
CAN U POST SOME PICS W/ THE RIM ON? I IMAGINE IT LOOKS A LOT MEANER.

This sounds like a more affordable option for us po' folk. Black rotors on all wheels would be nice. Is this available?

Can we even do the back soop? Stock, they aren't vented, so would cross drilled fit? And what about the parking brake, where does that play into all this? I could have sworn that Astro cited this as the reason that Brembo didn't make a rear kit for us.

ACP lists gold, silver and black platings for front and rear rotors.

The rears are pricey, $100 more than the fronts. Maybe it's the drum-in-disc parking brake setup.

I have had the four drilled rotors for about 6 months now and love them, I have been thinking about the ZEAL pads, but was concenred by the "some fitment may be required" line, did you have any problem with fitting them? Thanks

When you get the pads you will see two (2) notches on the top of the pad. You'll know when you see them. They either have to be ground down or cut off. Then the pads will fit. The pads you are getting are made for the NSX . So that is why the mod is needed.

Do the rotors make that big of a difference? They are the same stock size, & thickness right? I would think the pads are what makes the difference in performance. I had simliar rotors from KVR on another car & they were just horriable. They cracked along the drilled holes, I had the plating too, but after a year they were just as rusted as stocks were.
