are the powerstop JBR-1143XL new? Because i tried to google them and only 9 results poped out. Not many places carry this model. I know summit racing has it but you have to search for it and they have to special order it.

I ordered these, but I was a little hasty. I didn't do enough research on brakes but I figured for the price why not try em. BTW I ordered the 4 wheel package.

When i look at that kit it doesn't give me the part #. So i can't tell if it's for standard brakes or for the brembo brakes. I have the brembo brakes which ones do you have?

Okay so i guess i'm going to give the rotors a shot. So i just ordered the JBR1143XR and JBR1143XL - PowerStop Cross Drilled & Slotted Brake Rotor from https://autoshepherd.com. Total was $159.58 with taxes and free shipping. Use the code SAVE10 and get $10 off.

those of you using the ebc red stuff brake pads, is it true they make a lot noise and create lots of brake dust?

They tend to noise for me on slight braking but thats barely touching the brakes. I just press a little bit more and they go away, and the brake dust for me is hard to tell because the rim color... But i dont mind seeing as i will be taking my car to the track.
