I am the one who started that thread a while back. They installed very easily. Mine were ordered in powdercoated blue and they look good as well. The car is still up on jackstands as we have plenty of snow and salt on the roads at this time (March 3, 2006) so I suspect I will be able to get out on the roads near the end of the month or early April for sure.

I have "before" stopping data with the standard GM brakes from 60-0 so I will be able to do a pretty good comparison after I break and bed in the new pads. What I plan on doing is running some hard (8 of each) 30-0 and 60-30 bed in stops and slows with ample time for the calipers to cool.
