Good news for me. The discoloration from that pebble caught between the pad and rotor is virtually gone and the rotor is smooth and good to go. I burnished in my new Z26 Extreme pads I installed on all four corners tonight. A little different feel from the Brembos. The Brembos definitely have more initial bite but the Z26's stop pretty well too. Just don't have that quick head jerk bite down when you tap the brakes. Good enough for my street driving and much less dust.

I made the same swap.. agree. Not the same bite.. but decent..

I had the rims ceramic coated.. I pretty much clean them with an air gun.. I get more road dust than brake dust..

Do these pads work on the OEM Brembo calipers?

Yes. You're just swapping pads. I found Auto Fanatic's video about how he went about curing his brake squeal very helpful for the pad removal and re-install. He's a little long winded but the info is very good.

What did I do to my GT350 today? Absolutely nothing! The amount of rain we have received here is mind-boggling. 8" since June 1.

I assume you went with the performance grade?

Look at her in the garage.........With all the rain we are getting here in S.FL...but Betty is getting a lot of work though !

Brought her in for PPF. Tired of temporarily wrapping for each track event.

On the storage racks in the shop they had an F40, F50 and Enzo plus many others. Left the place drooling

I washed it, took a few pics and put it back in the garage....raining too much (off and on ) to get out and have fun with it.

Installed FP lowering springs with Ground Control camber plates. I'm very happy with the drop and the quality of the camber plates is incredible.

Exact same part numbers I currently have installed on my car. Install went extremely easy, especially with the CaliPerfexion brake caliper stud kit up front.

Emptied the FP passenger side oil separator. ~500 miles since last emptied, ~11cc oil.

You’ll find your car settles and additional 1/4” to 1/2” over time with the FP springs. Looks real good when all’s said and done.
