hehe been there man...those 90-100 to 20mph freeway exit ramps are killers on our brakes!! lol anyway, yea, i know what u mean, my brakes were feeling very soft and non-responsive the past few months so i finally broke down and got all new rotors and pads....figured if i was gonna do it, might as well make them better, so i got drilled & slotted rotors , and it made a BIG difference. pedal feel was GREATLY improved, to say the least...it helps to use good pads too..those "bargin" autozone ones arnt too good..lol i just bought the best pads that the local "napa" ( or equvlent in ur area...lol) had. and they work great now..
stopping power is WAY better than before, and the pedal feel is sweet...makes it feel like my brakes are bigger than they are! biggrin.gif
