[QUOTE="Anrev, post: 184301, member: 9158"] Cross drilled rotors are mainly for looks. Especially on a daily driver. Ceramic pads are also unnecessary IMHO. They dont have quite as good a stopping power as a good semi-metallic pad but dont fade under hard braking like semi-metallic or organic pads do. Ceramics are good if you are going to be doing alot of hard stopping like on a road race course. Or if you tow stuff. I used them on my truck for when I was towing my camper. Get a either a set of Cobra/Mach 1 or '99+ (you will need to modify the spindle slightly) brakes for the front. Both are dual piston calipers with the cobras using a larger 13" rotor. The '99+ use the same 11" rotor you have now. I plan on doing Cobras with cross drilled rotors in front and Baer 13" cross drilled rotors in back. Because I like the look. :naughty: As far as the bleeding, get a bleeder vacuum pump and suck the fluid out. Their only a few $$$. [/QUOTE]
