Are those HP plus pads? I ordered a set of HPS Hawk pads for my cobra and my sons GT. Heard good things about Hawk. Let me know how you like them.

i just got hawks for my '99 z28 they are awesome, but more of a warm weather pad. i live in ohio and it is ususally really cold here in the winter. when the pads are cold and i step on the brakes at freeway speed i can really feel them warm up and start to grap real hard after about 1-1.5 sec. i like them so far.

*UPDATE* as of 1 /18

Well LATE last night, or early this morning I should say, along with the help of my buddy Josh "2002/Black/SS" I got the EWP wired and ready to go...we also reattatched the P/S pump and my billet pulley made by Synister MotorSports...what a fine looking piece!!
I painted the coil packs red, and the coil brakets gloss black...hopefully it'll look nice with all the other accents under the hood..

Thats about it...I am waiting on a Fuel press gauge and it'll be ready to go...we also tested the Racetronix fuel pump and fuel flew out of the AN line...soooo I guess that works hahah

Pics will be up this evening..

Dude, you're killing me. You're not allowed to post to this thread unless you have an update!! Pics or something...I just dropped my Z off at the speed shop for some 4.10s. So, I don't have my car to look at. The least you can do for me is give me some of yours lol.
