When I'm going above 55 or so and I apply the brakes, the car seems to shake... the pedal shakes and the steering wheel shakes. Lower speeds, it's just fine. What could that be?

Its good practice to bleed the system while you are changing pads anyhow. I think its a lot easier with no wheel in the way.

If you are gonna do that you might as well flush the entire system by pumping a bottle of cheapo brake fluid through it before you put the good stuff in as well --------------------  ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM) Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

See Hector if you were still here we could get this wrapped up in a few hours (if even that), and then you can make the Texas meet! |
