Hey guys, just threw in Eibach shocks, struts and lowering springs this weekend, along with some J&M c/c plates. I gotta say, handles like she's brand new! Body roll is basically non existence now which is awesome. Even though I drive like a granny, you notice the corners are sooo much easier. About the same ride/driveability as before with those stockers but you def stick way better when you push it hard. Also replaced the brake pads and put some new drilled rotors in. I was just wondering, is it normal for my pads to be screaming? haha I don't know if its them or the rotors. Do they just need some breaking in? Rotors look sexy btw.. Perhaps I will post some pics once I get them off my brothers camera.

 

I think with the new brakes they will make noise for a while but keep an eye/ear for what would seem unusual noises for an extended period. Not sure if that makes sense as I am medicated. Congrats on the new handling ride. Like you I drive like gramps but I notice a difference as well.

 

They will make some noise for the first bit due to the brake dust,depends on the quality of the brakes pads.

 

I just got some Monroe pads, they were more expensive than I anticipated...

 

Noise stop yet? Is it your DD?
Hey, you promised us pics?

 

My dd??? The pics are on my brothers camera, he lives 1 1/2 hours away sorry haha. I'll throw them up when he gets his *** up here!

 

dd = daily driver

 

Oh haha, well yes but I don't drive a whole lot to be honest with you. It's my 3rd year owning it and I've but on a mere 11 thousand clicks I think? Just about at 88K. Noise is slightly beginning to get quieter!

 

Good to hear re last line. Ha ha I drive mine an average of 1100 kms per year so 2 years 2200 k's. That number is a little high as I expect the odo to read 2000 k's by Oct.

 

Wow, I'd punish that car of your's if it were mine. Course, I'd probably wax it as much as you do too hah
