I'll drop it when I get the cash. I already owe myself (took money out of my savIngs) $400 from the last car insurance. I also will be needing new tires soon. I only work 14 hours a week which is barely $140 a week. And I go to college full time. If u know of any good ways to get cash, let me know... Cause I sure need it, and I won't be able to drop it till either Christmas or my birthday....

looks good man. The sounds your describing are very normal. Don't sweat it. You'll notice a lot of dust at first, too. What brand and model pads did you get?

You'll also here a very fast pulse like sound once they are bedded, again, it's normal. It's just the drilled surface. Just keep in mind, with a machined rotor, you want to be vigilant with the condition of the pads. Replace them when you start hearing the wear indicator because you cannot resurface the rotor and those tend to be more susceptible to warping.
