Hey, just noticed this introduction page. I have already made a few posts and what not. Name is audie, drive a 2001 sebring silver with the usual mods, nothing too crazy. Not sure what I'll add if anything in the future, maybe a new top with glass window and a clear bra, not sure if those really count...

I am definitely new to the s2k world so if I make any dumb comments regarding the car, just take it in stride. Had my s2 for about 3 weeks now and it is an absolute joy to drive.

Oh you guys got any advice for some new brake pads?

Well there ya have it.

the brake pads i've been using are "wagner thermoquiet" from o'reillys...
they're pretty good, with minimum brake dust...
however i only recommend these if you DD your car, which i do...

Audie! Unless you autocross competitively or running in advanced groups for HPDEs, just stick with oem brake pads. Brake fade is never a problem on the streets IMO.

just moving back to Houston from 3 years overseas, not in the military. Bought my second S2000, a blue 2003 with only 27K miles.

My name is Cory and I am looking forward to seeing what I can do to my car in the future..... Looking for ideas.

Hopefully some more events pop up during the next couple of weeks.
