i was just wondering some peoples brake setups, i was looking into doing a whole swap of my brakes, pads and rotors, and maybe rear calipers.

i know a lot of people run Hawk, but I was thinking EBC, anyone use their redstuff pads?

I'd like to go drilled and slotted rotors, any feedback on those would be nice too,

and what have people used for replacement rear calipers for these LNF crappy ones?

thanks in advance guys!

 

Best lnf setup for street/auto-x is stock stock stock. Hawk HPS is a big downgrade from the stock Italian Ferrodo pads.
Slotted/drilled rotor are nice for show but offer nothing in brake performance over the stock Made in Germany AC Delco rotors. Rear brakes are fine as of 2010.

 

I didn't want to go with hawk, I do want the drilled and slotted for looks, and I'll just go with stock pads all around

 

Do LNF's have larger rear brakes than LSJ's?

 

Yes.
And the calipers like to get stuck.

 

Which is why I might replace them. What have people used to replace the stockers? Rock auto? Ced?

 

More stock ones...

 

 

To this day I dont know whats wrong with mine 103kmiles original factory pads no scoring no squeaking never even had them apart now the fronts a different story on the fourth set of oem pads/rotors

 

Yeah I know but where did you purchase them

 

I had the same rear problems as everyone else. I ended up cleaning everything up, lubing the pins and replaced the rotors/pads with Centric parts from Rockauto. This set up lasted 30k miles which includes a fair amount of road course track use; however, they wore evenly, no rotor scoring and no rough braking. Fronts stock/stock all day.
