Arbitrators, if it should come to that, love that sh!t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont want any like the EBC ones which need to be too hot to work properly cause I never get a chance to get them up to that tempreture. and probably not ones that are too hard that just chew up the rotors...thanks again guysPete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same thing happened to me years ago, DBA and EBC dont mix.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
