Time for new brakes for the 2000SS
 
Anybody got some ideas/thoughts/recommendations? I don't want to go nuts spending on crosslottedrilledimpledtitanium rotors or anything. Just looking for quality rotors and pads with minimal dust and noise.

When I last did brakes on the Camaro up front, I went with Power Slot Rotors, Hawks Pads & Stainless Steel Brake lines. The SS Brake lines made a huge improvement on feel of braking. The pads also didn't produce a large amount of dust either & provided a good stopping feeling. I don't believe the combination was to expensive either.

I hear the WS6Store.com has some pretty good deals on complete brake kits that get good reviews.

Next time I upgrade I'm going with C5/6 Brake upgrade up front, with 98+ stockers in the rear.

Walker Thermo-Quiet Brake pads. Quality pads and no noise with low dusting.

EBC gren stuff make almost no dust but their stopping power is kinda weak until they get up to temp.

He's obviously being funny... unless he's talking about old schoolers drag racing.


I use HAWK HPS pads on the GTP and they are great, aside from the dusting. They worked well in all temperatures from very cold to very hot.
