What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Probably going to pull the trigger on some EBC green pads this weekend. Can't decide between EBC rotors or Power Stop.. Suggestions? And yes, I've used the search but couldn't really find a definite answer.

Thanks
Jay

 

i have EBC power slot rotors with green stuff. love the combo. i can lock up my 33x12.50 tires on demand. and just put ebc blanks with green stuff on my mothers heavy van and they are 10x better than stock.

 

excuse me?

 

Thanks for the input, I plan to order it off AutoAnything, how do I know if my truck has VSC or whatever?

 

Idk, just giving ya hell! Trucks looking good. Ain't seen ya much in the NC thread lately, or it haven't been paying much attention

 

My brakes don't lock down real good. When I push them got hold down pretty hard to stop since I put my green stuff on

 

Get the rotors turned?

 

Haha, just dont be hattin

 

Anything is better then what I got now. If I have to hit the brakes hard at all, they stick to the rotor after I already have my foot off the pedal and on the gas. Doesn't slow me down but I can hear that the rotor is warped because the pad is barely still pressed against it. Plan to bleed the brakes this weekend to see if that helps with them sticking. If not rotors and pads, then if nothing still I guess calipers

 

did you break them in yet? should have instructions with them on how to break in

 

I don't guess. What's instructions

 

Damn you, you're ring to make me spend money I don't have right now. How long till you think your diff skid will be ready.

 

Still have to point them down



Wired the switches up

 

I'm interested. Let me know when it's on sale

 

Go easy on them for the first 50-100 miles and then go normal for 100-500 miles and then when yoh hit 500 miles go from 60mph down to 20mph as quick and safe as possible 5 times. Im sure you can google ebc break in

 

Ok thanks. Have you done it yet?

 

Well f*ck me! Take my money and give me a discount since I'll be the first to buy

 

I did it on mine and I dont have any complaints about my setup. Ill be doing the 60-20 on my mothers van tomorrow.

 

I will probably go with the EBC rotors. It may just be a seized caliper. I plan to do some investigating tomorrow. If it isn't pouring rain

 

The diff skid is a few weeks off or so since I didn't like the mounting system and am going a new direction. Waiting on parts and such now.

I will probably start a group buy tomorrow when I get the holes drilled and it is mounted. Otherwise everything fit as expected and it is good to go.

Group buy pricing will be the best discount I can offer.
