Rear pads are done and front rotor can only be beyond tolerance.

so I got some goodies

1 Set of front BMW performance rotors (the floating ones)
1 Set of OEM rear rotors
PFC Z rated pads all around.
Car already has SS brake lines and ATE fluid.

This should be a nice little setup hopefully.

The stock setup did surprisingly well at the track, I was very impressed. Just got the brakes hot one session and I was driving like a moron.

My previous cars (a MKIV GTI and a 240) would roast their brakes in no time, given the extra weight of the ZHP its pretty amazing it took the beating so well.

Very nice. I have a spare set of fronts and rears in stock as well.

For feedback:

Brakes are awesome, it might be just air, but the front did feel more responsive / willing to change direction.
Pads are great, a lot less dust than oem, not as much initial bite, but much much more linear.
