    Got the brakes and bearings done. Initially got a Bendix ultimate upgrade kit for the front. Rotors, braided hoses and pads, new fluid too. Turned out bearings had to be done as well as the rear brakes too. So ended up doing rotors and pads all around. At least that's out of the way for a while.

    Performance? I don't know what to think as this is the first time i've ever had a brake upgrade of this magnitude.
    I understand they will take a bit to "bed" in before full effect. So far the pedal feels the same. First half of press more or less does nothing and then it begins "grab". The latter half definitely grips and anchors the car more and i guess it'll become better as time goes on.
    But am I expecting to much if i was to say I expected "more" from the pedal early on considering the work done?? I'm assuming it was all bled properly.
