Yo man MachV has them for like 220 for fronts

I think my front right rotor is probably warped. Is it a problem to just have all 4 resurfaced? Also any more reviews on the Project Mu Ns pads? And any other recommendations for a great break pad? Anyone here trying the Ferodo's?
Thanks

Also is the stainless steal break lines a good upgrade?
Also is the stainless steal break lines a good upgrade?as far as the break pads, I sent you a PM.
Where can we get the Ferrodo pads for $230 (for all 4 corners)??
The Mach V link seems to say teh stock Brembo pads are really Ferodo.

I also have to say that I did not experience any brake fades with the stock pads so I have to say that the stock pads are satisfactory in my book but because I'm constantly on the track, there is no way that I'm going to fork out 440 for front pads. Ferrodo DS2500 all the way. I bought the front and rear set for 230 bucks. Interestingly enough, you can interchange the STI pads for the EVO pads and vice versa.

The factory pads may be manufactured by Ferodo, but the friction material certainly isn't the same formulation as a DS2500. The OEM formulation will barely last through one day at the track. It's great on the street with good initial bite and low temperature performance but these same characteristics mean it's totally outclassed on a track.
