PLEASE tell me this is a baseless rumor. You wouldn't dare to put such crap on your car, would you?!?! :eek: [/quote]

Advance Auto or Oreiley... :p Unless I hear back from Terry soon. *cough*

I guess it doesn't really matter since I still don't have a 4ws line secured. :(

Anyone know the best way to ship a couple of 5.5' lines?

If you don't get Terry, talk to Philip at Supercar. Either way, don't get any chain-store pads. No sports car deserves such poor treatment.

What exactly is wrong with autozone brake pads that are used on a car that rarely goes above 90mph?

Pedal feedback and initial bite. I'm pissed that I was forced to put el-cheapo pads on my SVT Focus. Even the factory pads felt so much better. I think the fastest I've had that car is 100 or 105, and that's only been once. I'm going to change them out next chance I get.

I absolutely LOVE the Porterfield pads I have on my R/T. Even when I'm not driving it like an asshole, it stops so well.
