Brake pad removal times
For any one who's interested and wants to attempt the job them selves. After jacking car up and wheel off, the time to remove caliper, pads out, clean up area and change the pads, rebuild, is about 10/15 mins per wheel. (given that you have the correct tools)

Thansk for the info.
What pad siting grease did you use? Was the grease cooked?
It's another thing on my list for possible upgrades as the standard stuff can get cooked on track days.

Brian, yes the original grease was "cooked" extremely hard, I just use the normal "copper slip" find it works well on all the pad slider/runners and a hi temp castrol grease on the slider bolts for the pad carrier.
