PS - SoundQ SVT puts these brakes through an entire weekend at SVTOA On Track and they were still in perfect condition, even thought they wore a little. So I'll reiterate that you are doing something with your installation of the brakes, clips, wheel or bedding that's screwing them up. 2000 SVT Turbo 295hp/269ftlb@12psi #1 for Bendix Brakes Kits!

I installed SoundQSVT's Stazi brake kit and monitored the brakes over the course of the weekend (Autobahn - Joliet). Stazi's brakes held up quite well I thought, and Bob said they performed well for him. There was about half the original thickness left (approximately) which was pretty good for 7 or 8 on-track sessions. '98 SVT Red/midnight blue - a few mods E0 wheels for sale - PM me

However, they will remain in the box till I can get my car back on it's feet again. I am sick and the rains in Florida don't let up . Will post performance observations when I get them hooked up .

The PF pads only seem to work when when you are really pushing it and the initial bite isn't very good. Justin 1999 Ford SVT Contour (T-Red) Cardomain site

If there is one thing I like about these Focus wheels it's that the wheels are the color of brake dust. You can barely telll the difference between clean and dirty.
