I have included a picture of some of my goodies that I got last week.

Yes, those are stock rear rotors, ate powerdisc fronts, SS lines, and a spliter.

I also got new pads and a couple liters of good brake fluid. I hope to get this stuff on the car sometime soon, like once it warms up.

stock pads?

nick_318is · 02-21-2006, 11:57 PM

PBR metalmasters. Next time it will be hawk hps. I got the metalmasters because they are supposed to be a pretty decent pad, and definitly better than my stock pads for only a little more $.

Very nice, you've been talking about getting that splitter for some time now, huh? Haha

what kinda brake fluid did u get? whats good quality brake fluid?

Cant wait to hear the verdict of the new rotors , line and pads.

I got a liter of ate superblue and a litter of ate typ 200, they are the same fluid just different colors. (makes bleeding earsier)

Harry i have had the spliter for a few weeks I have been asking about what it might cost to repaint my iS lip so it looks as good as it can. I am also on the lookout for another set of kidneys to turn black to see how it would look on the car.

ha ha nick i remember when you bought the splitter on e30tech.com!

itl look sweet on there

nick_318is · 02-22-2006, 09:53 PM

what do you post as on e30tech, i never did the math or somehow didnt notice you on there.

I got some goodies today also.
although i meant to order slotted rotors not drilled, but I think ill just leave the rear drilled and the fronts slotted. What u guys think?

Also got some undercoating for my soon to not be rusty battery compartment and some tire coating...for well shinny tires.
Anyways didnt want to start a new thread about it.
Also got some Hawk HPS pads.
Note all the brake stuff is for the rear.

good choices guys. I never regretted my brake upgrades and I did basically the same thing.

-ATE power disc fronts
-UUC SS lines
-Axxis Ultimate pads
-Super Blue brake fluid.

And nick since I know you do a lot of track time, you should love this.

^yea i'm finally going to get this stuff on the car tomorrow if all goes well, and I get to go test it out in a couple weeks when I do a track day.

Slotted and drilled are just extra money wasted...

nick_318is · 03-23-2006, 01:18 PM

I have only heard good things about the ates on e30s, and they are not that much more then stocks so i got them instead. The rears I got were stock. Also I got pbr metal master pads which i'm not sure are going to be very good, so I might order some hawks next week to replace them with.
