fmly evo, trailer hitch??

I almost hit someone last night on 480.. traffic stopped dead.. Thank you brembos..

I actually had to let off the brakes a little because the car behind me was going to hit me.. i heard the tires skidding behind me and they weren't going to stop in time..

on that note.. do you ever experience brake fade?? When i bought the car they replaced the pads and rotors for me.. but i didn't recognize the brand.. i'm getting worried that they: 1 - won't last or 2 - will suck when i actually need them. (i.e. brake fade... not grab.. disintegrate.. )

any thoughts? i will eventually replace them.. its just a matter of time.. i just want to know what your experiences are..

Ouch dude!!! id be soooo pissed off... im sorry u aint going that really sucks!

On another note. I got my car tuned up pretty nice tonite finally. I know a few of you on here have saw him post in this thread under the name DeiPro which his business is DeiPro Tuning. I met him a month of 2 ago and i was told by one of his customers to have him check out my car as far as tuning needs. Origionally my car was done by AL from Dynoflash last year rite before NOPI at Norwalk. I made 282 whp on Buschurs dyno. He did a decent job and it made a difference. Well i had Kyle take a look at the flash he put on my car and noticed some interesting discoveries with wat he touched. And we did a head compaire to his flash and Kyles somewat flash if you want to call it that and the differences were just amazing in a good way. Ill say this i dont know jack **** about tuning but from learing from what Kyle is telling me it makes sense now lol.

But after an hour and a half of out driving it around and doing some pulls we finally got it perfect. Before Kyles tune we could just tell from a 3rd gear pull from 3K that the car seemed to be bogging (due to it being a tad bit rich). But once we cleared it up wow the car isnt even close to bein the same as it was. It acutally sorta scared me when i did a 1st through 4th on the highway. And to think i have been tryin to sell my car cause it didnt seem very quick for what it was. Well after tonite i totally changed my mind. All is done is intake, ported manifold, downpipe, catless, 3in turbo back, act clutch, boost controller, bov, and a lower intercooler pipe.

But if you guys are needing something like that done. Defs check him out. He knows his **** and becoming very respectful around this area. He can chime in on this too.
