I have some good news <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I got word that the rear pads shipped from england and will be arriving to EBC usa on friday. They will ship them out the same day to me and i will be getting them on wed/thurs. So i will be shipping them out that same day. I have the front pads on the shelf and i have the rest of the rotors here this thursday. This is a real time frame. I would like to thank all those involved in the GP and waiting a long time for this. I beleive the product will speak for it self. I will also throw in a little something special for all those that waited. Anyone that has a question please call me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

Thanks Barry.

I was one of those that was more than a little upset
with how long we were waiting. After calling up
Barry and talking with him, I feel much better about
everything. Sure the wait has been long, but this
is really out of his hands.

Thanks again.

Yep, it's still been a positive experience thus far. Barry is a great example of a businessman. I'll plug the product when I see the results. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I got front pads and rotors on Tuesday 9/10. They are on and I am quite pleased with fit and finish. I cant wait for the break in period to be done so i can really see how well they work.

This really took forever but it seems as though thats EBC's fault. Hopefully now that many have been produced they will actually be in stock somewhere like QTP.

Thank you, Barry. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />

Barry, any update on the pads? (Green, all the way around, LS1) Thanks.

Plus, my 'rents want me to clear all my mods out of the basement, and I've got a set of rotors collecting dust. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Thanks.

 

Let's get this wrapped up Barry.

I know it is not your fault, but plenty
of people have been waiting since MAY on old
warped rotors, for a deal that was to take
only a few weeks. If you can't get us the
pads, say so and I'll go buy something else.
You put this deal together many months ago,
and haven't been able to deliver. (that
is right folks, this was the MAY GP for QTP)

I don't know about anyone else, but this
whole deal has taught me why I *never* bought
anything else on the net, and probably won't
for some time to come.

Not to be a sheep here... but WTF happend to the "real time frame" Barry? At this point I have everything but the pads.

This is turning into a joke. I can't believe anything that Barry tells us anymore.

 

Good news!
All pads are shipping today. You will be getting a email from me with a tracking number. If you do not get one by tomorrow morning email me or call me. I will give you the tracking number.

Sorry for the extended time frame, but these pads are brand new! I got EBC to make these for us. They were not sceduled to go into prodcution until nov or so.

I hope everyone likes these pads after all this trouble <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I have 98-02 Camaro/Firebird EBC Pads and Rotors in inventory and will be a stocking number.
Have a nice day <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

Thanks Barry. I appreciate your efforts.

Nevermind... I see on another board that our 'special something' is a 10% off of our next Quick Time Performance purchase coupon.

 

Got mine the day after you said they were shipped. Going in this weekend.

Glad things worked out. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

 

Got mine yesterday. Going in this Sunday.

Still haven't gotten mine yet! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> My account was hit with the charge but still no pads.

BTW... I took some pics of the new brakes. Will anyone host them for me? Yeah the car is filthy but they still look ill.

Another thing about these brakes: they remind me of the brakes on my bike. When you grab the lever/push the pedal you can hear them (TSSSSSSsssssssss....). Pretty cool. I like them thus far. They really shine above 40.

Barry, you were right, these things are awesome and installed without a hitch... !

Rock
Glad you like it. Email me the pics. There is a coupon stabled to your invoice.

 

Does anyone actually have any experience with these?
