Default Newbie & performance brakes supplier


Nice to meet all you guys. My name is Pat McCleish, I'm a gearhead ex-mechanic and now I run the Technical Support department for a large automotive brake parts distributor and I just recently started my own business selling performance brakes. I'm here for two reasons: to find out what problems, if any, come up with saturn brakes, and to help you guys fix them. 2nd, I can provide you with the best prices possible on brake parts. I ask that the moderators let me post a couple for sale threads and if I get a lot of interest, I will be happy to pay for a premium or sponsoring membership..

My brakes work find Never had any issues . Though cross drilled and slotted rotors would be a nice upgrade, they're too much $$$.

Welcome aboard! I found that Saturn Brakes tend to last quite a while, although, that may be just cuz i used to drive either a heavy truck, or my camaro's......lol. I am looking for cross drilled/slotted rotors though at a decent price, and maybe a calipur upgrade.

A. They're too god damned small.

B. They don't stop the car fast enough unless you engine brake at the same time....and even that's iffy.

C. We only have floating calipers at our disposal last I checked......change that.

D. We can get powerslot rotors from qksltwo.com for $70 a pop.....can you do better?
