CarboTech brakes in stock - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

I'll be sticking with the upgraded street compound, but I take it that the bedding procedure is the same. hehe. Anywho, I'll be doing maintenance before school starts, so before August 31. I'll be doing the front brake pads, Sea Foam, and an oil change (still 0W-20 Amsoil with their EA filter). Don't think anything else is needed after that. hehehe.

Off topic: for the Sea Foam, a 1/3 of the bottle is suppose to go into the brake booster line. Stupid question, but where is that tube in our car? hehehe

Off topic 2: We may need more cars to keep the cost down in our private auto-x event. We'll be holding it near Monterey in September, as mentioned above. We will set up the track and have the timer. I'm opening this up to YW members, pending if more cars are needed. PM me if you would like to join.

I got the AX6 and I've driven them extremely aggressive, if anything insanely aggressive! Huge improvement in stopping response, these suckas bite! Install is easy, I reused the stock shims with these pads without problem. I love them and I'll stick with these ceramics in the future.
