<E30> brakes - help!
calling all brake experts! within the next few weeks i will be doing the
brakes on my '89iX. here is what i plan on doing:
1. new rotors
2. new pads
3. super blue fluid
4. stainless/kevlar lines
i am considering going with the ATE powerdisc slotted rotors. any
opinions/advice/experiences? for pads i really don't have a clue. i would
like something that will not sqeal or rattle, i don't care about dust, but
they need to be great on the street but usable for a few driver's schools
(maybe 3-5). as far as lines, does anyone have any experience with the
kevlar lines advertised in eurasion? i want a good set that is durable and
reliable. i am willing to pay more for a good set that is of good quality
rather than save a few bucks and regret it later. what do you guys/gals
think?
as for the procedure, since i will be switching from castrol dot4 to super
blue i suppose i need to bleed the entire system including the clutch? what
should i look out for? i plan on acquiring a good pressure bleeder system
(maybe from steve d'g) so i just want to make sure i do a good thorough job.
brakes are nothing to skimp on.
all help is much appreciated and i will follow up with my experience when i
do it. thanks.
