ORIGINAL: willkrupnik
I saw that typhoon intake and i think i will order it.
Yes, do so! I own this currently...great intake, great design and it even has a hanger that bolts to the motor to keep it from floating.


Question:

Has anyone noticed more wear on the inner front brake pads rather than the outer???

I recently found this out for myself as i was looking at thoes rubbing points. fortunatley, SB directed me to www.suzukispeed.com and looked into some new rotors because i'm going to need them, as my inner pads were so worn down, there was no pad, and it's now the metal backing scraping the crap out of my rotors...NOT GOOD, and the strange part was, there was no squealing from the brake pads to indicate somethin was wrong! very odd INDEED!
Hasnt happened to me yet, but yes it has happened to some...and it is very strange indeed.

BTW those rotors SuzukiSpeed sells are the best youll find! You may even look for Satisfied Ceramic brake pads to go with those new rotors, your local parts store should carry them(order them for you)

Everyone goto SUZUKISPEED-DOT-COM and give them your business!!!
And seriously, EVERYONE(except you motor-pickle guys)...this guys got hard to come by aftermarket parts for all(most) Japaneese Suzuki cars...great prices and I believe usually free shipping! And the good news is, the more who order from him...the more interest he recieves the more products he has developed! So order away...and please try and make him your first choice!

not all brake pads will squeal prior to grinding into the rotors...only pads which are fitted with "squealers", little pieces of metal clipped onto the edge, will make that sound. [:@]

Yes, you are correct. My car was a rental car from texas...purhaps they took em out at the agencey just because they service them frequently or something, because i would imagine the dealership would install pads with the squealing shims in them, who knows.

Bottom line, the inside wore faster than the outside for some reason.. i will look into this further.
