370 miles to go

[sparkie]

finally after have in my new disc pads. (pulsar front sport japan disc with green stuff pads) my brother has fitted them. and said i have to bed them in for about 400 miles.
then to wind me up it's fitted my power boost valve. seems to make a little differences but can't really test due to the brakes.
couple of pic's here. sorry bout pic quality camera phone.

looking good there mate but i usually only bed new brakes in for 100 miles and never had a problem, maby 150 if they are over-size for the car

I was told 500 miles to bed in when I put the Almera brakes on my car.

When i put my uprated GTiR brakes on I just went steady for the first 20-30miles then hammered the hell out of them, they are sweet as a nut now, never had any problems.

Must admit I usually make sure everything is ok, then drive them relativly hard under safe conditions.

right now done a 180 miles and have been pushing it a lot more. i've found that when i driving had that the car seems to smell of petrol i've had a look for leaks and the feul consumption seems to be about the same. anyone have any ideas.
