Had Hawk HPS pads, little bite on the street.

Baer Sport rotors don?t have the aluminum hats and are fairly reasonable.

Initially went looking for the 96 CE calipers, but wasn't having any luck.

Will probably upgrade the whole system at some point, but for now will be mostly stock except for rotors & hoses.

Interesting that pads make such a big difference in brake feel, I should probably see what Powerstop recommends for use with their rotors.

Wondering what made you change the bias spring?
