It is invevitably inevitable.
takes twice as long to stop.
Plus it isn't speed that kills.............it's the instantaneous stop that does it when they hit the object that is more solid than the car............
So the brakes don't do the job they should do before the reach that instantaneous stop !

The 'boys from Oz' can try http://rdabrakes.com.au/index.php/pads.htmlDrive (and stop) safely. PS. Sorry to Shambles (and anyone else) about my use of green text. Thanks for mentioning it. I am afraid that I dislike the washed out grey background intensely for the way it reduces background/foreground contrast. A decent black would have been preferable for my taste. (Obviously not shared, so no point complaining.) I have been using green as an approximation of the old monochrome green on black monitors which I used for years... (long long ago when I worked for a software house!!) Amber on black was also used on decent monochrome monitors so I will try the 'orange' for a bit and see if that improves readability. It is pretty close to the amber colour that I recall.
i finally tracked down some ppl that can provide me with better brakes...they told me they can deliver : pads disc and rotors.... for around 4000$
