I have heard of it in hard racing (1000 degree + temps) I doubt it will ever be a problem unless you track your car for several hours in a row.

b.t.w. I have ebc greenstuff, no problems yet.

I haven't put mine thru long stints of heat stress, but I autocross on them about twice a month (in the summer), do pretty hard mountain driving and daily driving. I've had them for seven months or so, and they look to be somewhere around half worn.

okay okay, brakes are important but I the 'best' at trak auto with a lifetime warantee, we've used them on all our cars for the past 14+ years never failed, never had a problem. I somehow went through a set of rear pads in 2 years/30,000 miles and I can't figure out for the life of me how I did it.....

so thats what an impact driver is.... I want hehe.

thats probably best for those philips head scerws on the rotor.

I think the AEM should work out well for you. If it leaves anything to be desired, you could try Hawk the next time around. (no personal experience but good rep)
