I think all in all we can say this....

Ok.. maybe cd-ed dosent help much. BUT, for 180bucks for 2 front rotors that are thicker than stock and seem to be performing well ... who is really losing here...

Sure id love to drop 3 grand on a NICE braking system... but for a couple hundered bucks im happy.

If you answered your questions at work the way you do here, no wonder you got fired.. all talk

God, who uses facts, logic and science to answer questions pretaining to engineering these days.


Maybe from now on, instead of doing wind tunnel testing; I'll just stick my hand in front of the radiator.

Then dont come to me with ridiculious requests for numbers I cant get when you ran the friggn tests and you still cant post em

As far as your credibility... you told me how all the real rally racers dont use cd-ed rotors but for some reason 75% of the webpages I looked at rally cars had them... thus its becoming more and more obvious how full of **** you really are

Those Firestone tires that came with the Explorers awhile back must've met their standards too. Now more than, what was is, 200 people are dead?
In case you didn't know, it's all about money. Think whatever you want though.
Uhhh.... do you know anything about the standards set forth by the big three. I am spending months doing durability testing and performance for GM's new vehicles. I guess Nueremburg just isn't good enough for you

Id have my *** under a huge lawsuit and never be hired by any automotive company ever again. Nick would be fired and probobly in the same legal perdicament. I would however like to know the methods you used in your testing and a description of your results as we laid forth.

PS: what are you qualifications to be arguing right now without data?

No, it's because I'm not a naif like you who believes everything they hear or see
Bottom line man, that's what it's all about. Sorry to burst your bubble.

i cannot release test specs and results to the public! why do you think i just didn't thorw numbers out there in the first place?? I'm not a fool. I can get fired i caught releasing **** to the general public, which you are.

Chingon, the advantages of braided brake lines are that they do not wear out like rubber lines will, when your truck ages and your rubber lines start to fade, they will bulge when braking is applied, not allowing for as much pressure in the line itself. because your vehicles are new or at most 4 years old to most of the people i am speaking with, you will not experience this because your lines are pretty much new. I will be doing the braided brake line swap when i lift my truck. i'll inform you if there is any difference. steel brake lines will not decrease stopping distance only pressure in the lines, so it will decrease brake fade. This other guy told you pedal feel would be different, yet its not. So you have just told me he is wrong and you still believe him?? Keep in mind the tests that were run we run under ABS activation, so if you lived in snowy and icy regions where your vehicle would have many more abs activation than someone in cali. Therefore you will not see the pad life cut inhlaf unless you stop hard enough to have abs activation. Hope this helps.

You think drilling holes in your brakes makes you stop faster. You have ZERO expeirence with vehicle testing. You are not qualified to speak, go home.
