    R1s going on all 4 corners tomorrow.

    All 4 new R1 Rotors, plus changing out the 3.5 year old fluid, cleaning the calipers, putting the summer tires on AND last but not least all new Gorilla Lifetime lug nuts.

    Some quality time in the garage. I will get pics.

    Right on. I'm interested in how those rotors stand up vs the stockers. Looking forward to the pic(s) and whatever info you have to offer.

    Good luck and enjoy your quality time.

    Well, no pics as the job took WAY too long, I removerd the pass rear rotor to find the linings from the e-brake shoes laying in the drum. Then had to locate a set on a saturday. That took an hour.

    Then I could not get the drivers rear off the back because the e-brake shoes were holding them on and the adjusters were rusted. Hour later that came off and I got that changed.

    On to the pass front, got that caliper off to find that the slides were frozen. That took another hour to free up.

    So a job that should have taken 2 hours max took over 5. Maybe pics tomorrow.

    The R1's stop so much smoother than the EBCs ever did. What a disapointment the EBCs were.

    Looking good!

    I got a set of these too and installed a month ago. Very happy with the performance.
