yes, I read those comments. I tend to agree with Menk and others, though.....certainly no one can accuse me of being a StopTech shill, although my car is available as a test-bed if they want to send some hardware my way
I'm not buying his theory on the "there's no such thing as warped rotor's" thing.
Sure, I can see pad material causing the vibration sometimes. But as someone who's experienced the problem and looked at the rotor's 1st hand... they were definately warped and it was shiney bare metal... not "pad material buildup". Having the rotor's turned removed metal from the rotor's...not pad material.
"...in more than 40 years of professional racing, including the Shelby/Ford GT 40s – one of the most intense brake development program in history - I have never seen a warped brake disc. "
Sounds like properly setup brakes to me then. Put a set of geo metro discs on a GT40 an I promise you'll see warped rotors. I have personally cut drums and rotors many a times. I don't ever recall anything more than metal coming of those rotors when I had to remove .045
