My only question is whether there is an appropriate order to do these three tasks. I'm leaning towards replacing the pads and doing the fluid flush while the old rotors are still installed. Then I'll replace the rotors and check everything before bedding the brakes. But if someone has any insight if there is a better way, please respond or PM me.

:tup: GL!! and I hope you guys have an EPIC time!!!!
(of course since you and Gurney are going (and Pint of course) it is SURE to be FUN!!, just thank gawd Gale won't be there! ;) )

This evening I changed out the stock brake fluid for ATE SuperBlue, replaced the front rotors with EBC USR slotted rotors and the front pads with Hawk Performance Ceramic pads :tup:

I washed my R2C filters as well, but I'm going to let them continue to dry overnight just to be sure they are completely dry. After I re-install them tomorrow morning, I will do the brake bedding process before heading to RR Nissan for a basic vehicle inspection in anticipation of the Nismo Performance Academy this weekend at COTA :driving:

I went for a really nice cruise tonight. I am blessed with a lot of back country roads that are twisty. I ended up in Grand Haven Michigan to watch the sunset over the boardwalk. I don't think I could have wished for a better day. 76 degrees, partly cloudy, waves were crashing and it was so relaxing chilling on the pier.

The Ate is great stuff. I use it as well (in many vehicles).

Wow, ATE SuperBlue is outlawed in FL? What? How stupid is that?
I guess somebody didn't get their payola so no approval.

I went on my first Z cruise and watched three guys take on a challenge to eat the "worlds hottest pizza." One had a nose bleed and the other two.... Well I'll see if they ended up in the hospital tomorrow.

Should have been at 6k RPM.

Yeah. Figure that out, then make it happen.
