I have an S13 93 coupe without ABS. On it I have brembos x-drilled with KVR carbon fiber pads (front and rear). Had it for 2 years.

Now my left front brakes is squeeling and I think it's time for pad repalcements. I've been asking all shops and I don't know of any who will turn my rotors.

I am not looking for big brake kits yet nor am I looking into a 5 lug conversion. I haven't looked into brakes for awhile and was wondering if I can get any suggestions from anyone.

Thanks in advance. BTW, I love the KVR pads- very little dust.

you cant machine cross drilled rotors...if you cant afford replcaement cross drilled rotores, check their thickness, lightly sand them and put the pads on...if you're getting vibrations during braking you'll have to replace them

I cant gaurauntee good results..but thats the best you can do with cross dirlleds/sloted rotors without replacing them outright..-chet
