ouch...stock it is...lol.

Even more for the auto-x pads, 156 only gets you the street pads. But if you were trying to make this car better in a stock class at the auto-x then you would pay that without hesitation.

Yah..I agree....id pay that if I planned on keeping the stock rear brakes, but discs are in the future and the $100 I save is a decent chunk towards the new setup.

Thanks for the info though....maybe ill pick up a set if I dont end up getting my disks

I got a brand new set of shoes AND drums AND hardware i need to be rid of, let me know if your interested.
