Ok, just a quick update.

Pads/rotors are pretty worn in now.
Car pulls up VERY well - Just ask JCMF
I still get a HUGE amount of nosedive, so harder suspension is on the wait, just need the time.

I'd had a few rear lock ups for those who are interested, but I have a feeling my suspension is a main cause of it.

Slamming the brakes on hard takes a lot of the weight off the rear of the car.
On the weekend, I revved out first gear, then backed off, slammed on the brakes and then went down a decline (prolly 30-35degrees).
This took 90% of the weight off the rear tyres.
So the rears locked up bigtime, and hence, the motor stalled (and I looked like a tool infront of a few ppl).

Would this have happened if I had stock fronts?
Who knows, but I know I wouldn't have stopped in time with stock fronts (I was being a dickhead, it wasn't like it was an emergency stop).
But 50-0 down a 30-35deg decline in about 6metres is still pretty good, considering the rears did 0%.

So, in the future, I think a set of twin spot rears will be installed, or maybe just a brake bias adjuster.

But it is more than adequate for the moment.
Under controlled braking, I can pull the car up no problems, and in less than half the distance that it used to.
