I already got them, but maybe they arent the right ones, they dont look like that....although you said you have to cut them myself..... yea no Shuck Kraven stores here in MD...

I showed them to my friend at a car shop, he seemed to think they were the right ones.... they say Brembo shims on the package .....

I'll take a pic and post it up tonight, lemme know what you think

Pep boys has a 'help' brand parts section in their stores also. It might be there on the shelf....

 

sweet, I really wanna know if these work though? specifically designed for the Brembos.... the shims are brembo shims and I got em from Mitsu directly, the EVO is the only Mitsu to have Brembos.... right?

Right. But remember, the Brembos had 2 shims on each pad. The removeable metal shim and the bonded fber shim. What you need is the fiber shim. What do the ones that Mitsu gave you look like?

8 metal shims i think

You definately need the fiber shims off the back of the stock pads. I re-used both shims, bed them in on the drive back from my friends house (~10 miles) and pretty much forgot about them after that. Went to the track 2 days later and they were great. No fade, no squeal, easy to modulate, and probably a quarter of the stock pad dust.

 

okay, they worked, no squeal, no performance loss that I can tell.... I did resurface the rotor also..... cool... im surprised, I ddint think it'd work
