No need to replace your rotors yet, but turning them can't hurt. I personally didn't touch my rotors though.
I HATE brake dust which is why I'll never touch aftermarket Ferodo pads (OEM pads are Ferodo and they dust like crazy, aftermarket Ferodos are even worse). They stop awesome though! I've personally had and liked the Stoptech Streets and RacingBrake ET500's in terms of performance, dust, noise, etc. I've also had Girodisc Junks...I mean Magics...and despised them like the devil due to their non-linear friction coefficient throughout the temp range. Some day I'd like to try the "new" Kevlar EBC Redstuffs...

Well I actually just ordered several things and was going to post here.
Ordered new OEM serpentine belt, ATE super blue fluid and Ferodo 2500's front/rear pads.
Dust doesn't bother me a ton as my wheel color hides it really well. I also don't drive mine every day so the dust won't build up too fast. I rode in Scheides' car when he had these pads and it stopped pretty damn good from what I remember so I figure they are a good choice. Need something to stop all my power.
I did skip the SS lines for now. I did see you replaced your pads Kracka and was going to ask what you did for your rotors. Maybe I will just leave mine, we will see. Seems easy enough to turn them.
I was also planning to add a RSB as it seems like the "best" cheap mod left I haven't done. I was leaning toward the Whiteline 27mm one but was curious about endlinks? Do I need them?
Hybrid Mode
