Jeff is the man.
He did my brake pads and fluid and the car feels great... very clean work and moves like he was born with tools in his hands.
Great work!!!!

Glad to hear the car is running good Andy 
and I'm glad I was able to
help you out with the flywheel.
Jeff found a noise in my car too that no one else was able to find either. I had that noise
for like 3 years. Nothing worse then an annoying noise in your roadster. I finally gave up after awhile and causally mentioned it to Jeff one day. The next thing I know he's under my car. He's a good guy and a very good technician glad to see others are finding out what I have known for awhile.

what kind of pads did he put on for you? Jeff was talking to me about race pads but i had to run out of there quickly.
The dust is a little much, so I try to wipe down the wheels with a towel at least once a week, which isn't so bad. The weird that is that the rear create more dust than the fronts... doesn't make sense but it is what it is.
The stopping power is just insane... monster stopping power!!!! When it is cold out, you can feel that it requires a little more pedal power than OEM pads, but still more than enough grip to stop. When they are warm though, you better hold on... lol. They can take up to 1000 degrees, so you don't have to worry about pad fade.
Cheap - $186 for all four of them.
Andy... you should do it man... cheap and easy to replace after Jeff showed me how to do it.

i just changed my rotors and pads. You should have seen my rotors, they were probably the original ones from 01. I might have to try out your car and see if i like the pads!

Ferodo DS2500... ****ing amazing pads!!!! They hardly make any noise at all. Every once in a blue moon that make a small squeal coming to a slow stop at a light or stop sign, but it is very rare.

How do the oe roters hold up with these pads?
I've never had any complaints about the oe pads, even at the track i hardly get into the ABS... (maybe i'm not driving hard enough).
