Jedi: Yeah, got the new pads in - didn't get a chance to turn the rotors tho - long story behind that one

Roariee: we should setup a trip out to Neptunes just so we can pull a spoof of that scene

Get the rotors turned, or get new rotors...it helps the wear and extend the life of the pads...also remember to "BED" them in correctly until your rotors have a nice blueish/purple colour...

definitely BED them in, it's kind of fun to do. My rotors were glowing when I did it.

ehh the resurface etc doesn't really matter unless your planning to compete at a track day, I'm just glad that god awful noise is gone.

The worst that's going to happen is your pads will wear down much faster no biggie though.

No biggie unless your pads cost an assload and you want to have even brake force distribution...
