Akebonos not up to heavy track use!

Were both like this or where the fronts worse then the rears. Also I wonder it duct work and better cooling would help, or just better brake fluid and pads??

I wonder if you just have a bad set of boots.

all 4 were pretty bad, but the rears had 3 semi reusable boots, only one had a tear in it. The fronts only had one decent one, but I still don't think any of them are in good shape. I'm only going to use the 4 ok ones this weekend only, unless my Nissan dealership can get new ones in by thursday.


Here are the brake pads, just for grins!
4 20 minute Road Atlanta sessions and
7 front, 6 rear 20 minute little talladega sessions.
