Currently have 2 '04 GTO's and a '75 Monza. Bought the blue one new. Both GTO's are quite a bit modded. The Monza is still all stock...for now.
Past cars include an 75 Cosworth Vega, 78 Monza 2+2, 79 Cutlass, 84 Z28 HO 5spd, 85 Monte Carlo SS, 87 Grand National, 89 Turbo Trans Am, 92 Spirit...
I've had the Power Stops in for a couple of weeks. Dust is a lot less. I feel the initial bite is better than the stock pads. I'm sure if pushed, these wouldn't be as good as the stock pads. But for street driving, they are great.
Thanks guys. Just finished burnishing them in. Took about 2.5 hours from driving on a 2x6 to dropping it down. Since everything was off, extra time to clean the calipers and wheels. It was literally the easiest brake pad install I've ever done.
I put the Power Stop pads in and they seemed...
Getting ready to do pads. Never changed pads on Brembo's but it looks simple enough though. What are some do's and don'ts for this car? Just looking for any gotchas that can be avoided.
Thanks
I want to change the brake pads as the dust is crazy. When going to a pad that doesn't have the sensor, is there a light on the dash that comes on? If so, does it stay on?
Probably going to go with Power Stop Z23-405 and Z26-1053 as I believe these will fit correctly but no sensor.
Any help...
As long as your bumper to bumper warranty hasn't expired, they should cover it. I was in my 3rd year of warranty on my 04 GTO, the bolster was showing wear and Pontiac replaced the top half leather of the seat. I don't see why Cadillac wouldn't do that also.
The first tankful in mine has been the best. Didn't go past 55mph because of construction but keeping it at low speeds and no boost, I got 31.1mpg. Some how I haven't been able to replicate that...
Best now is 24-25mpg consistently.
