Git R Dun!! Two off my list!!
 
Well, today I got my wheel bearing stuff and all I can say is that I wish I had the money to do it right the first time. Soooo much better and I can now hear the left rear starting to go out, good news though as I can start saving for it.

That is #1 on the list of fixes and I recently ordered #2 on the list. I will be getting my STS drilled and slotted front rotors on Monday.:D:D

I'll be sure to let you all know how well these rotors work out. They are from Raybestos, so I'm hoping that they are good. Will keep you all updated.

Next up, New CV Axles, damn rocky dirt roads in Idaho.:rolleyes:

Good for you! :cool: I still have a left/rear bearing to replace in mine. Amazing how little things can make a car feel like a whole new car once you get them in order. :D

Just got the rotors and damn do they look good. I have just put them on and I have yet to set them and drive anywhere. I just want to sit back and admire. More details soon about STS rotors and whether or not you should pay 190 for a set.

Well, after taking them from the warm up pad set stops, I was pleased to find no brake fade. Now, when doing the stop from 80 to 0,HOLY SUPER GLUE BATMAN . These rotors are really sticky and I never really felt any fade EVER. The heat stayed down when lightly misted after a few hard stops from 80. Just a little heat bubbling.

PROS- About the same as if you were to order from Motorsport Warehouse. I paid 190.97 total.
- Easy installation and a perfect fit.
- Can't keep myself from staring at them as I get near my car.

CONS- Need more holes, when I get pics, you'll know what I mean.

The only hitch that I had with the whole installation was that my SVX jack buckled due to improper stance on the pavement. Nothing was hurt when the car fell of the jack and on to the ground, I'm okay and so was the rotor that the SVX's weight was on(Thank GOD for BEEFY friends).

All in all, best 190 bucks I have ever spent. Pics soon, hopefully.:D:D:D:D
