    Some times that"squeal" is lack of goo on the pin and back of the pads.
    I have dimple drilled and slotted rotors with green/black pads
    Im not jumping up and down with the result, Ill waiting till I have Brake Safe braided lines
    in.
    Mind you poor braking performance might be due to having mud pattern tyres fitted.
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

    I guess the gu already has good brakes.
    The ford wagon and gq have shocking brakes. Lol. So any increase for you guys won't be as substantial I guess.

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
