Earthquake brakes

**GPSims39** · 03-17-2009

Ok, im 99.9% sure on this but of course need input, my car drives good (aside from needing new front struts) when i hit the brakes lightly the whole car shakes and the feels like im in an earthquake. when i hit them hard its less but then i shutter to a stop, when i got the car the guy said the brakes were new, and the roters looked brand new, but then after driving it aorund for a few days this started, some days are worse than others, im thinking warped rotors.

Warped rotors were my first guess too. It seems as if the disc brakes on these cars get a bit hotter than some.

I have had my rotors turned twice now since I have owned my car.

warped rotors sound like the issue. Get some cross drill / slotted rotors next time. I'm pretty sure if you look on ebay you can get cross drill and slotted rotors front and back with pads for $150.

I am now starting to offer brakes,Rotor's and the f-body conversion setup for these car's.

The cheapest price you will ever find. All drilled and slotted rotor's have a 2 year warranty on warping and the caliper's and all hardware for the F-body conversion have have a lifetime warranty on them.

Let me know if you or anyone else is intrested.
