My First car :: 2018 Mitsubishi Mirage ES Plus (Garage entry)

[Alemon]

Installed my new brake pads at 97,500 Km with the Powerstop Z23 Carbon Ceramic Pads. The brake pads is noticeably better than stock. It has better bite when braking. The brakes feels stronger when theyre warmed up but still very consistent feeling Through out the de acceleration until stopped.. Theyre very quiet brakes and I am very satisfied with this product. I heard from other reviews that they produce very low unnoticeable dust but I can’t tell since I have my winter steel wheels on. They’re very light brake pads compared to fully ceramic or semi-mettalic pads. The only minor issue is that the two notches on the plate of outer facing pad doesn’t go in the holes of the caliper by hand, or as easily as the OEM. I got around this by using a C Clamp by forcing it in the caliper. It might be hard to remove when the pads are due, but I put an anti seize to make it easier to uninstall. If anyone knows the min rotor thickness, please let me know. The imprint on the backing of the rotors is rusted from Canadian winter.
