Ok, but i swear, mine will be diffrent.

Now this will sound bad im sure...but i'm looking to do brake work on a budget. Why? Because I realize how brake systems work and where I can skimp.

First things first...all current pads and rotors are quite old, rotors seem to be really pitted, but not warped. The pads however, dont seem to bite very well.

Now I understand these cars tend to brake a little more towards the back then they should.

Provided the pads are still good, or even if they are not, can I just replace the front rotors and pads and turn down the rears and use previous pads (if they arent glazed over that is...)?

I really can't see putting all new pads and rotors the whole way around on a car that already has more braking force then it will ever need.

I think im just rambling...your thoughts?

just get some brembo blanks and performance friction pads all around if u are on a budget

you dont want to use old pads on a new surface, regardless...atleast i wouldnt

brembo blanks on a budget? those are like...40 a peice arent they?

How much are these "Performance Friction" pads?

I'm hoping to spend under 60 for brake work.

Why cant new pads work on turned rotors?

Under $60? Don't even bother, a set of good pads will set you back $60 or more. Do not go cheap on brake upgrades, that extra $50 or time can set you back your life.

Under $60 come on. You're gonna trust less than $60 to slow you down. You should save up a little and get some worth while parts. Also turned rotors will cost almost as much as new ones, so you might as well just get new blanks.
