Ok Update Got new rotors from 88 rotors and the brake pads that came with it! After installing the fronts no problem the rear calipers were jacked up some how so i got to used ones that worked fine and got everything finished up at about 1 last night and went to break in my brakes at 3am wooo hooo lol Only thing is it seems like i have to use more pedal to get it to stop or is that just the calipers needing to adjust? heres pics tho

After you break them in it takes a while for them to fully bed in to the rotors. Give them a week and they should be fine. Mine took 2 days to stop really good.

Damn..you are lucky to be alive.

[mestizo]

Dam man u are lucky ur still alive. Well, the only good thing about this is you have learned a serious lesson and you have been given a second chance. So if you decide to and your parents let you keep doing this then you need to go about it in a whole new way, I know now you know exactly what I am talking about now.

People always wonder why I do things the way I do when I slide on the street... it's for a lot of reason's and this is one of them. I do this for fun... hurting others or getting hurt myself is the last thing I want to happen.
