Yup, no problem. Although the new front pads have an MSRP much higher than the old style ones, but the discount level I'm doing is the same.

Any update on these, Stuart? Are they ready to ship or do they still have to be made? Also curious if they're going to build them with the wear sensor slots in the correct position this time.

They should be out for delivery tomorrow

I'll have to ask PF if the wear sensor slots are reversed like on the earlier pads. I'm not sure TBH.

I just asked about these Monday and by Tuesday they were at my door.
I installed them, but I haven't driven the car with them on yet.

Oh, and a couple of observations:
  • They are a different shape than the OEM pads. They still fit, but are larger so they cover more of the rotor surface near the hub.
  • The pads are not mirrored so the slot is at the top on one side and the bottom on the other.

I'll post pictures on my car thread later.

Received with thanks. The car is being looked at for the emission faults, and while there they are "popping" in the brake pads.

Let me just say, at a shop rate of $159 per hour, I need to invest in a jack and some stands.

^^^^ Especially considering how trivial a task it is to replace a set of brake pads.

Looks like I'll be putting these on my car along with VelocityAP's 2-piece brake rotors, plus the Michelin PSS's I had put on today. Time to do some stress testing muwahaha!

These were installed. No brake squeal, with no elaboration necessary.

Hi, got your email/order have just responded with amended shipping cost. Sorry for the slow response, I promised my wife I would switch off the phone & computer over the holidays and stop working for the first time in 3 years!

Has anyone had a problem with the backing plates on these pads hitting the front rotor hat with street or track applications??? just installed these and my brake pad backing plate is dangerously close to my hats....

Thanks!
