get better braking power. this was done on my 2001 Mitsubishi eclipse GS

where can i get the caliper paint? cuz i was thinking just regular spray paint

[wesmath1]

@Preppyboy70x most auto parts stores have it and i recommend it because it can handle the heat unlike regular spraypaint

[wesmath1]

@Preppyboy70x auto parts store 

[wesmath1]

@Preppyboy70x you can buy it either way

Great tutorial! Did you have to use some sort of liquid to make sure the pad doesn't squeak prior to installing the caliper?

[wesmath1]

@Leonhart306 thanks! and no i did not use any liquid

hey , good job ! did you notice any improvement in braking ? because those look like stock size rotors, and how much did that set up cost you ?

@wesmath1 i bought one but its not spray it comes with a brush and i have to paint it with my hand wtf?

@Leonhart306 If thats what it says then its either lose or thats the way they are :) Good luck :)

@OMACMedicFiveZero I'll retighten them in the morning. As for bedding them in. I just followed the instructions from EBC. Easy braking for the 1st 100 miles and intense stopping from 60-0 to brake the Brake-In coating.

@Leonhart306 Cool man ill check it out :) have no vids of my car up, i should probs make some haha :)

As regarding your brakes, strip em, grease em up, and tighten em all back up, if it still there it might just be the slotted disks :) $ months old shouldnt be giving problems, how did you bed the new pads in?

If you're worried ask a mechanic or trusted garage to check it out :)

@OMACMedicFiveZero Come to think of it... I didn't retighten the bolts after 500 miles of usage. I drive a 2002 Honda Accord. You can check my channel I have some vids on my car. Going back to the brakes, I don't think the rotors are warped because I bought them at the same time I got my pads and that was about 4 months ago. Plus, they don't feel warped when I'm stopping on level roads. My old OEM rotors were warped and that's the reason why I upgrade to EBC.
