Just use the ones you bought and zip tie off the sensor. Many of our replacement pads don't yet have the sensor cutout.

Hard to gauge a car I haven't driven on track through a video of a track I've only driven on a sim, but I think I'm a lot more aggressive, especially on brakes. Also, VIR gives a lot of cool down time between hard stops. My home track has a lot of hard braking zones closer together. (this is...

I am wondering if anyone has gone with different brake pads to make the initial bite a little stronger? I have tried the brakes extensively in all 3 pedal modes but none of them really improve that initial feeling when getting on the brakes. Yes, the pads work well when you are really on them...

Anyone need Brake Pads?

...brakes issues. A) It needed new brakes after 21,000 miles, and apparently there is a several week backlog at GM dealers for brembo OEM brake pads. B) I wound up purchasing KNS pads so I could get my car back, however when I received them yesterday, while the correct brake pads...., they...

I haven't tried them on my 5BW, but I've had good luck with Akebono pads in the past. Lot less brake dust BUT your emergency stopping distance is going to increase anytime you go with a harder (less porous) pad in my experience.

...all seem to be wearing evenly. I thought baby might be needing a new pair of shoes soon but looks like it can probably wait. Changed the brake pads as they were almost down to the sensors. Interestingly, there's a brake wear sensor on the driver's front & px rear only -- not all 4 corners. I...

Do you still have the link for that Ebay dash? I have a suede dash cover now hiding lots of ugliness... How is the BBK? If it is the same as https://store.uucmotorwerks.com/big-brake-kit---wilwood-dynapro-caliper-1175-rotor-front-84-91-e30-325320318-all-incl-ix-p563.aspx, which I presume it...

That is just crazy but good to know, thanks!

Don’t blame the “American” car. Did you take the 90 seconds to inspect the pads/rotors yourself? Based on your post (and the OP) seems most likely that you’re just getting ripped off, replacing parts that don’t need replacement…. And that’s not the cars fault…

Absolutely thrilled we my '24 4BW which I picked up November '23. Most of my miles has been taveling on the interstates which has been fairly easy on the car. But I'm puzzeled with the brakes because at 6,250 miles I needed new front rotors because they warped, the dealer replaced them under...

At Spring Mountain a few weeks ago I mentioned that I had swapped out front pads for Ferodo 2500s and didn't disconnect battery. The instructor told me I was lucky to not have any issues because supposedly the car does periodic tests on itself such as adding brake pressure to make sure they...

I LOVE ECR!!! I didn't buy the wing to track it but I did take it out for three sessions at COTA this Summer - went to SRF fluid and did the brake vent mod (for cooling). No fade at all. Stock pads. Stock tires. Just a tick over 500 miles on the car. Hit 150+ (maybe 160?) on the back straight...

you have a link for a set of ceramics? I bought cheap pads for daily and got a set of new oems in the trunk., my originals got pretty worn about 70-80 % pads used 1 track day 4 sessions, but the performance was very impressive for oem pads, we use hawks and g-locs in our race cars. now looking...

...brake rotos something awful. One other thing about CMP, the paddock area is mostly sand so it's very easy to pick up stuff between the brake pads & rotors. The pads still have life in them but I got a new set of DBA XP Performance Brake Pads from KNS Brakes on Closeout. This is the front...

I remember a post from someone who said that he obtained the parts from a salvage 5BW and installed them without any software changes, and indicated that they worked "fine". I say this because I suspect that GM may not be forthcoming with whatever software changes exist between a CCB car and a...

I was going to replace rear brakes after the track this weekend. I pulled the oem rear pads and noticed the pad doesn't maximize the area of the backing plate. I always thought you wanted the maximum amount of pad on the rotor. Just curious if anyone has an idea why there are the 2 cutouts on...

Good to know. I bought race pads and I have a lift at ecr so I might as well throw them in. Pretty impressive though.

No. By now I would think the aftermarket pad manufacturers have replacement pads with the brake sensor cutouts. I only have 12,000 miles on my 22 so won't need pads for a while but when I do I will get the Powerstops again but hopefully with the sensor cutout. Although I don't need the...

...Extreme Contacts. KW V3 Coilovers, ADDCO swaybars - on and on and on..... 38,000 highway miles - this car is STILL running the factory brake pads ! Gorgeous, needs virtually nothing, mechanically and visually stunning. Never had a Ck. Engine Light, never missed a shift (including reverse)...
