Message	with the HPS pads on the convertible. They aren't worn that much, but don't grab and haul the car down from speed anywhere as well as they did in the initial months after install. I put it down to old brake fluid and plan to change it out soon. The HP+ on the turbo still grab and stop fine, both sets of pads were installed on each Z at about the same time. Let us know what Hawk says. Regards, My Zs are hybrid vehicles, they run on gasoline and money times change, people change, but the Z32 still kicks ass. - apudapus 16:46:02 06/15/07 I was more wondering how you set your climate control to 22* lol, it would be that fastest freezer on wheels! - Briscoe'sZ32 (NJ) 23:15:44 02/05/07 You have *got* to be getting a cut from B&B :D - SeedyROM 15:24:29 08/16/06 What do you think B&B stands for? - YugoBernie (NoVA) 15:57:09 08/16/06
