2 weeks ago ive changed my front stock brake rotors and pads into the
grooved rotors and greenstuff 7000 series. ( all ebc )
Now it seems i have less grip on my brakes when i try to stop.
Only thing i hear is wind noise on my front wheels and when ill try to brake , i need to push my pedal allmost to the end to stop fast.
They are wright installed ... could it be that my calipers are broken ?
One was frozen on the pads and a little damaged
Anyway , where or who can help me with a price for front calipers 05qc?
or some help.

thx:D
 
Have you tried to contact Belgium Barry to see if he knows anyone "local" to you guys?

unfortunately, nothing stops as good as the stockers.......:(

i went with the centric posi-quiets for less noise/dust & live with reduced braking..... however, they're almost scary how bad they stop in the rain. :(

i woud suggest properly bedding your brakes, this will help:

guess i'll just stick with stockers if they stop best:rock:

regardless what you choose, follow the bedding procedures for best results. :)

The Performance Friction pads are slightly less grippy than stock,but with the braided stainless brake lines,they stop almost as good as stock.
 
Bedding is very important...but if your pedal is going nearly to the floor...I would be suspicious of air in your brake lines. Bleed the brakes before you do anything else. Usually even if your pads are not working well the pedal should be high and hard...if your brake fluid is dark, purge it...new fluid will withstand higher temperatures and retain less moisture.

Just something to check before you go purchasing new equipment.
