Brake discs Brembo or EBC

its pretty normal for our engines, that's one of the reasons why we change our oil every 3-4k miles. if it ever becomes much more than usual, you could be looking at a leaky seal in your HPFP or the like.

I purchased brembo oem vented rotors from mjmautohaus and got them that same week (fast service). 288mm for the front on a 1.8t as stated a few posts back.

Re: (rhouse181) Quote, originally posted by rhouse181 \u00bb that bearing shattered... it didn't wear due to poor or inadequate lubrication. looks more like manufacturing defect, the outer layer on the bearing shell delaminated and rolled around for awhile. sorry to say this, but that crank is toast... i would start searching for a good used one out of a wrecked motor. this.

I've had EBC dimpled/slotted rotors with red stuff pads and they work pretty well. They are kinda noisy during braking but aside from that I haven't had any issues. The red pads are amazingly low on brake dust too

I only upgraded the rears to Brembo cross drilled rotors with PBR deluxe pads. It eliminated the rear dust tremendously. Braking improved too.

Brembo rotors will resist cracking because the holes are cast into the rotor instead of drilled after the rotor has been cast.

The Brembo Sport kits are an introductory performance solution combined with an appealing aesthetic application. The Sport level is comprised of a 1-piece drilled or slotted and solid or vented rotors, according to your original manufacturers requirements. High carbon cast iron metallurgy insures top performance, noise reduction and improved comfort due to higher dampening coefficients. Cross-Drilled or Slotted Rotors: Clears gasses, cleans pads for better \"bite\". Attractive, Anti-Corrosive Finish: For a bold, aggressive appearance.

I got new Brembo front rotors (not drilled), and then put in new pads... THe new rotors and pads in the front mad a HUGE difference....

I got brembo rotors and some other german pads, not really sure what they are, squeeky as of the 4 days so far, we'll see it it gets better.

I already have slotted and x-drilled brembo's with pagid blue box all around. I'm in need of replacement since the fronts are warped.
