Default New brake combo install

Well these may not be new to the world but after I bought my car the rotors were worn and pads were growing thin so I searched around for slotted only rotors and several vendors did not carry stoptech slotted rotors anymore and I came across a site called cquence.net with different options for rotors. I was pretty weary over their products (came from three past cars with stoptech or brembo brake kits) so I ordered the front and rear slotted only in gold zinc finish. I then ordered stoptech street pads, 4qts fluid and lines from tirerack.com the install was easy but time consuming, had a friend to help bleed the system and then we bedded them in. The parking brake shoes were fine still so I did not change them. I'll report occasionally on how the brakes are, I'm just hoping they are ok for a non oem/drilled rotor without paying high $'s for a set from say figs or a completely different bbk cause the stock seems very very sufficient compared to my supra's custom brembo setup. Any questions ask away! L8r, justin
