just a lil project for tomorrow!

 

sweet - what pads are you going to run with those? done the legend caliper swap yet?

 

Hopefully it isn't so hard to take off the stock ones.. Hah..


Should do the calipers and the lines too while your at it.. That's what I did

 

discs are really easy to replace. Just take off your calipers. I believe there are only two bolts holding the calipers on. Once those are off there are only two screws holding the discs and walah!

 

VOILA!

 

It is easy... But what if your retaining screws get fuxed like how mine was when I was taking them off...

Hopefully the op doesn't have a hard time with those... And yes I used a impact screwdriver...

 

yes i couldnt wait i did them tonight it wasnt to bad 4lb beater and the impact driver got the job done and ya just the 2 bolts on the caliper. i havent even thought about doing the
legend swap is it a huge benefit and the line i didnt do ill do it this spring ill tell you what tho a heated floor was nice

 

i got them with EBC GREEN and i love how my car BRAKES now ...lol.. have fun is ur turn now

 

congrats
now i'm jealous...

 

im officially jealous now. i hate going into my garage in the winter, its freezing in there. thats gonna be the summer project i think. gonna add in a sauna to one side and insulate the garage enough to make it workable in the winter

 

hahahaha a sauna would be mint for workin conditions i wouldnt have my garage any other way pull it in there the night before let it sit have all the snow and ice melt off squiggey the water out and bam nice warm dry floor an car

 

Nice. My rotors are kind of warped and im doing this SOON. When its cold out and i need to work on the car it used to suck. I bought a propane heater but i have a natural gas hook up(FREE) and now in about 15 minutes the garage is toasty warm. Its one of those round turbine looking heater deals. good investment

 

Nice pick-up!

Any details about the pricing?

 

i paid 200 for just the front rotors

 

just some quick pics

 

lol those are some dirty ass rims! what brand rotors are they?

 

check his sig - they're r1 concept.

 

yes its the middle of winter here and 40 below zero kinda hard to wash the car

 

Whoa....you paid $200 for the front rotors only and they are R1 Concept Rotors....?

I have R1 Concept Rotors and I got all 4 with upgraded pads for $120...

Maybe you can't get them for that price anymore but that was only 7 or 8 months back.

Mine were drilled but the slotted were the same price...drilled was just my preference over the other.

 

clean your rims bro! my power slots are kinda warped and i was thinking either R1 Concepts or Rotoras. what do you guys think?

 

R1 are good for the money but Rotora are going to be a higher quality rotor

Once I got the rotors worn in a bit...they were just fine and I think they add a nice touch to the wheels.

These R1's are a step up to a BBK when I have available funds.

Affordable & suitable for my needs is how I would describe them.

 

hahaha nooo point in doing that. I got a carwash friday and my car looks dirtier now than it did before I washed it. Second you clean it itll get dirty again.

 

I installed Axis pads last week and now there starting to make some noise when i am going through parking lots and at slow speeds and when i brake it makes noise too does anyone have any idea what it could be? or do I just need to get new rotors??? please help

 

Im about to buy all 4 for my car from R1 concepts, They are about $180 plus $40 for shipping.

 

^ Sounds like their prices went up...

 

do you guys drive hard on yoru R1's? any warping issues with them?

 

^ I think mine are starting to warp.

I'm starting to feel a little speed wobble when braking from highway speeds.

Don't think they are made to last which is why they are cheaper.

When they start to warp...can you just have them re-surfaced or something?

 

If they're drilled/slotted, I don't believe they can be re-surfaced... I've had my r1concepts since last fall, and haven't had any warping or any other problems.

 

^ Really?

Mine are cross-drilled.

 

nice pick up mang. i woulda waited till the snow and salt was out of sight, protect them for however long you can lol
