mts Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Yes, have them on right now.... I have a friend that works for Satisfied and they were a "corporate gift" I am pleased with them, as much as the Munroes. No brake fade, low dust on the wheels... nice overall stopping.

///BHRpowered Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 you will have problems with the slotted and x-drilled, even with grea pads, braking will be less, so don't complain. Personally I don't think the KVR's are that dusty, now some think a pad that dusts at all is to much, if your one of those retards then you'll be pissed, they do dust a bit more then stock, and its black not gray-orange ish, but a dusting brake pad means a working brake pad.

enginph Posted November 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Yeah i know.. suzuka+akebon.. suzuka+akebono+kvr... You bought kvr? Someone mentioned 300k rotors? Mine rears are warped at 108k, both. I bought larger fronts slotted only for myself and smaller fronts slotted only for my bro. Totally 8 rotors, 120lbs, 60kg, sht! We discovered few 01 can get larger rotors, one of which is me Other years may get larger fronts after knuckle upgrade ($250-300). I will go with kvr fronts and akebon rears..

///BHRpowered Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 I still say automatic car washes are the number 1 reason for rotor wrapping and failure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enginph Posted November 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 I still say automatic car washes are the number 1 reason for rotor wrapping and failure I just had auto wash once, after waiting in the line, so its not the auto wash. Its strong rear brakes+the crappy stock rotors they rusted like hell.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 rotors are going to rust from day one unless coated, that doesn't make them cheap, it just means there not coated or cermanic. besides, if you didn't buy it new who knows waht some former owner did. 01Mazda - BHR is one crazy motherfucker known across all corners of the internet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01mazda Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 oh your BHR saw it after i posted... I noticed everyones head lights arent fogged up... the previst owned of mine didnt take very goods car of the head lights and was wonder if there is a way to get this damn oxidzation off...... I have tryed rubbing compound with a low speed buffer, goo gone, even really fine steel wool (0000) and they cleaned up a little but not much! and this is the hole car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 ah, pure white, very nice. I've actually never seen any of the housings except 95-96 haze over. Are you running silverstars or cheap non UV coated headlight bulbs? I would recommend some meguiers scratch remover, really work it in, the steel wool probably did alot of damage though, you might even have to sand it dine with some fine grit sand paper, and THEN after its done, get a good coating of wax on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
