do you want a write up/pics on rotora rotors and bobcat pads?

Hello all,

I just purchased the slotted rotora rotors from vivid racing (670.00 shipped). They look great.

I also purchased BOBCATS PADS (CARBOTECH) from mach V ( 270.00 shipped)
yes all 4 corners.

I also purchased goodridge brake lines from lancershop.com (114.00 shipped)
UNFORTUNATLY THEY SOLD THEM TO SOMEONE ELSE AND THERE ON BACKORDER.
NEVER BUY FROM THESE GUYS AGAIN.

SO DO YOU WANT ME TO PUT PICS AND A WRITE UP AND PICS OF THE FINISHED PRODUCT IN THE INSTALLATION PORTION OF THIS SITE?

THANK YOU FOR THE REPLIES.

Did you get the vented set, or the cross drilled and vented ones? I feel you on Lancershop, they sold me a Defi BF gauge and told me in was in stock, which it was not. I cancelled my order w/ them and bought it from Boost Solutions.

doing new pads can be easy. you will get alot of controversial answers on turning your rotors. I know that most guys recommend that you install fresh brake fluid through out the entire brake/clutch system. It gets rid of all air and moisture. Fresh brake fluid is just like changing your oil sort of.

carbotech guys ( brake experts ) and my inhouse engineer say that if your changing pad manufacturer you should turn the rotors.

If it is shaking you should turn the rotors.

thats all they said.

I will be using the carbotech panther plus for summer pads, and bobcat for everyday uses.
I hope to be able to store the evo this winter to work on it.
I will start posting pics and a write up next week.

Go withe slotted rotors for track use.
