Awesome advice - should have asked earlier!

It turns out the notification that ECS sent me a couple of days ago was an error - they have since fixed it and the order will ship out today. I *did* buy ECS in house manufactured rotors - perhaps that was a mistake, but I will live and learn (again - shoulda asked here first).

I will also look at FCP more in the future, their site seems usable and selection and prices seem very good.

Great to know about the HPS 5.0 pads and track usage - I had wondered about this. I will do some research on pads so I understand what I am getting into - thank you for the pointers. I have 4 days in a row as my first track session of the year (and ever in this car), so I was planning to bring a set of pads just in case. Seems like it's a must.

Seems like I need to get used to changing brake pads (or pig squealing).

Also good to know about Motul 600 - glad you are recommending a DOT 4 fluid, seems better for mixed street and track usage versus a DOT 5 fluid?

I am putting stainless lines on.

What are "brass sliders" ?

Is it these:

...if so, I did purchase both axles worth of bushings and will have the caliper bushings replaced.

THANKS AGAIN!
