Mk4 Brake Replacement

Finishing Up

Step 1: Replace wheels

Step 2: Carefully drive a little to ensure that the brakes respond, and the head to a safe area to do your burnising.

My Hawk HPS pads say:

Step 1: 6-10 stops from 30-35 mph with moderate pressue

Step 2: 2-3 hard stops fro 40-45 mph with heavy pressure

Step 3: DO NOT DRAG BRAKES!

Step 4: After 15 minutes to cool your ready to go

After doing this I can say that I didn't think much of the new brakes during the heavy stops, I was to the floor and nowhere ABS. After the 15 minute cool down I went for another drive and holy crap, I think I'm hooked on Hawk pads.
