Newest Upgrade
The pics speak for themselves. I have about a dozen more showing the process but my computer at home has the HIV so I have to bring stuff to work on disk right now.

Thanks....hopefully GMHTP thinks so also. I contacted them before the swap and they told me to take detailed pics for a possible story. We'll see if I get lucky or not.

It should. I'm waiting to establish a wear pattern with the pads and rotors before I really get into it but I can already feel a difference in easy braking.

Sweetness. Now when I'm riding shotgun I won't have to be bracing myself in the same way as before  .

Jon I'm gonna miss that glimmer in your eye everytime I get on it on 22 and have to hit the brakes hard when someone cuts me off....you know the one....it says.....I'm holding on for dear life and trying not to **** my pants and drop my laptop all at the same time.

lol, Yeah, but I'm also trying to not kick the ecm, the emulator, and holding the battery in the laptop so it doesn't turn off... it's rather stressful. Having better brakes will take that glimmer down a peg or 2.

haha very true......you could always just solder that battery in like you've been talking about for a year now.
Your hubs are at my house by the way. Let me know when you're available for some tuning and such.
