It will do just fine on the street and light auto-x, if you plan on doing track days you might want to consider a different pad.

I would say that either JP or Derbo can provide you better inputs depending on what you plan to do with your car jayjay (track or autocross). I would say for street use they would be fine....or you can really go big and get their BBK kit :)

I agree with Tom, it's a decent package for the price. What do you plan on doing with your car, regular driving or occasional track/autoX?

I decided to go a different route, went with zimmerman rotors and akebono euro pads, got the whole front set for $175, ordered wednesday night and the package was waiting for me thursday afternoon.

I would say the akebono euro pads has less bite than the Jurid pads i had there before, but the positive is I dont get too much brake dust... For solely street use, i wont miss the oem pads...

thanks for the replies guys...

I wonder why im not getting the email notifications anymore from yahoo, weird...

How would this kit compare to OEM 34116855156 rotors & 34116779652 pads ($82/rotor + $77/pads + $22 sensor) ?
