Giesha gets Endless Brakes
The old owner of Giesha neglected her......made her go through countless waxing episodes, when she really wanted to be played with at the track. The old owner had an opbession with strippers and neglected her.
Well I decided to help he get ready for her first day at Sebirng with a new set of shoes....Endless N35S.
I can say one thing....I was spoiled with my stoptech STR brakes on the old car. Prosche brakes are a pain in the a@#.
One of the yellow ceramic disk fell out, had to take the front caliper off to get it back in the hole. No top load pads for rear......Giesha has Stop Tech in her future.
She also got a good flushing of Motul 600
Sorry for horrible pics

Looks nice! Now go beat on them!
Bedding:
Brake bed-in for Racing Compounds.
WARNING: Please do in a safe and controlled environment without endangering anyone.
1. Bring vehicle up to 70-75 mph.
2. Slow at 70% braking effort until the vehicle slows to 25mph.
3. Repeat Step 2 in succession 5 to 7 times.
4. Bring vehicle up to 60 mph (conditions permitting).
5. Slow at approximately 75% braking effort (should NOT activate ABS) to 25 mph.
6. Do not come to a complete stop when bedding.
7. Some smoke from brakes is normal as the bonding resins burn up.
OR
If at Sebring or Race Track, 2 hot laps on the brakes will get them seated well. Bring the rotors up to 380-400 C. Do a cool-down lap or 2 with easy braking and bedding is finished.
Do not come to a complete stop when bedding or on hot rotors.
I recommend using thermopaint on the disks to check temperatures.

I can't wait to try Endless myself. Getting tired of Pagids feeling like crap while still 50%.
I'll get thermo paint next time when I'm at Orbit..
Hihihi
After fishing the pucks out of the rotor a couple of times i was ready to kill someone.
Now I have clips from Orbit, couple of bucks each and they hold the pucks in. he has Titanium pistons as well, then you don't need the pucks I guess but more $$

Where do you get your Endless pads?
Also...to all....while at the 12hr race I was hanging behind the fence at the TRG pit and even though they advertise on the car and website Pagid I saw them using Performance Friction PF06 pads.....saw the Performance Friction box and the crew guys putting them in some calipers.
