I'm still waiting as well. Hey... at least Barry hasn't charged us for anything! (which is apreciated) <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> :burnout

So in other words, if I read your post right, we won't have our goods for at least another month, correct? If then, we'd be lucky... you've been saying "next week" since June. This is a fact, and everyone here knows it.

Now, I don't know about the rest of the folks here, but some of us may compromising the safety of others by stretching out the short lives of our brake compnents. I understand the business world, and that someone at EBC just may be jerking you around, but it's time to come clean Barry.

I think we've been pretty patient. This chapter has been open since April, it is now August. Some of us NEED brakes. Please, let us know what is going on.

In closing, I want to stress I say these things with utmost respect. Barry is very pleasent to deal with on the phone and has not let me down yet.

I'm in the same boat as Rock. I had no problem waiting a couple weeks longer, seeing as Barry warned us there may be a some delay...but a couple months is another story.

Barry would I be penalized or charged IF I decided to withdraw my order? I really don't want to do that, since I really want those rotors and know that it's not fair to sponsors to back out of GPs...but I really CAN NOT afford to not have them installed before leaving for MMRA. Plus, I just found out I may be in Detroit for next 3 weeks for work. If I can't be sure the rotors and pads will arrive I have to make arrangements to get other ones on my car soon.

are people still able to order some of these rotors/pads at the GP price, or is this a once in a lifetime deal? im in the market for a set of new rotors and pads? whats the lifespan on the green pads and the rotors? thanks!

From the looks of it, Anthony, you may be able to jump in somebody elses spot if these don't show up soon.

 

I can't beleive Barry hasn't replied to this yet. I'll shoot him an email and let him know to check out this thread.

 

Got some info for you guys. I just unloaded some LS1 Rotors of the truck <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I will be shipping them friday and next week. As for the pads, they are coming out of production and should see them in a week or so. This is not a long time frame considering these pads are brand new parts numbers. I informed everyone about the time frame that it could take longer than expected. That is why i have not charged anyone on there credit cards. If anyone has thoughts of canceling, you must call me. There is a restocking fee because i already purchased these parts.
Thanks for hanging in there guys. You wont be disapointed with these <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

Barry what are the weight on these rotors? Are they any lighter then stock ?? I need front rotors for sure <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Barry, would it be possible for you to post who's got sent during what day... for instance, if you send 20 sets out today, could you post tonight that
DinoZ
Bobs99
Joes00Z
Billybob
MrSmith
Dodad
Blah
Blah
All of the names were in the order that shipped today, you should see them in the next 3-5 days.

Is something like that possible? It would help those of us who have been waiting for months have a little peace of mind. Also, so we should be seeing the pads about a week or two after our rotors arrive?
Thanks.

 

Going to email out tracking numbers after i ship.

 

The rotors look great! I had mine installed Wednesday by Speed Inc. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> as ar as weight goes, I don't think are lighter than the stock ones, in fact they may be heavier than the stock ones...... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Thanks Barry, I knew you wouldn't let us down. We just get nervous when we don't hear anything. Thank you for not charging our cards yet either. You are truly an honorable businessman, hard to find these days.

Have a good day and I'll start bitching again if I don't see anyhting in 2 weeks! <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />

 

Hey, just wanted to let everyone know I got my stuff today. Rotors look sssshhhhhhwwweeeeeeeet. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Now all we need is the pads! GO BARRY! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

Rock,

if you get the chance, weigh them! From my unscientific method of loading them them into my car and throwing out the stock ones, I think the EBC rotors are at least the same weight as the stock ones, if not heavier (not that I really care one weay or the other, but it would be cool to know exactly how much they weigh). <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

-Bradster <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

 

Got my rotors last night! WOOHOO!

Man these things look real nice. I can't wait
to get the pads so I can install them.

Funny, I was talkin to my friend yesterday, and no
sooner did I say "where is that damn UPS guy", then
there is a knock at the door. The UPS WOMAN had
my rotors with her. (She looked nice too) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Haha!

Thanks Barry!

Raven, sorry bro, I don't own a scale! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I would guess they are slightly heavier though. Oh well, , they just won't warp as easily.

I am however considering drilling out the holes. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

 

Barry - do you have any more updates???? Sorry to be a pain, but I/we have been waiting FOREVER and I'm getting a bit impatient. Is anyone else still waiting for their pads or rotors??

Priscilla

 

I have more rotors coming in this week. The pads are out of production and are in the process of shipment from England. So its just around the corner. I shipped most of the rotors to the people that order a set.

 

Thanks for keeping us posted Barry. I'm waiting on
the pads before I install everything, so time is
of the essence! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
