I will NEVER work with Precision again and will NEVER be part of the initial group to be the guinea pigs for any new projects AGAIN!!

It's a shame this brake thing didn't work out...it sounded pretty good. And I don't blame you for being pissed about your $500...I'd be livid!

However, as for being in the initial group, I think it boils down to who you're dealing with. I was in an initial group with RonJon and there were no issues other than it took a little longer than initially stated (when doesn't it the first time around?).

they made a front and rear kit for my 03 TL-S.I posted all the problems I had with precision and I posted some pics.loki saw the pics and ask who did the work so I told him and a couple days later I see this thread.I didn't say anything because I knew he was trying to get a group buy together so I keep my mouth shut.this is what's going on my front and rear kit.the front had to be removed so the rotors could get turned because they warped after 3 months.the rear kit they couldn't get to stop squealing like a pig.they tried four different pads and they did all the proper bedding so you know where my rear kit is now the shed next my other wasted money projects.precision brake company is a joke.I'm just going to order me a front brembo kit and throw all the precision crap in the trash.

From such potential, comes much failure. Too bad!

Looks like I'll have to look into the Rotora or Stoptech BBKs. I wish there were a group buy on those.

Thumbs up Word!

I'm definitely interested. Keep me posted if/when you get the ball rollling on this.

yeah, loki stated afterwards that he felt he got screwed over too. I don't know the details though; didn't ask him. I'll just have to write off the deposit on my taxes but still pisses me off because that's money I could use for other things today!

In the meantime, once I hit that 75-80k mileage mark I'll probably slap on some rotora's or stoptechs. At least they have their kits done and have already been used by others on this forum.

Excelerate has an ongoing GB for red or blue Rotora 4-piston BBKs for $1250 for the fronts and $1440 for the rear (it's usually $1495 for each). I'm considering this as part of my spring mods program. The link is in the Group Buy forum (the GB itself is linked). I'm seriously considering this even though the Stoptech is considered better, though much more expensive.
