    Hey Guys,

    I'm having my friend change all of my brakes as soon as they arrive off of FedEx. I have a 04 GTP CompG. I know some of you have tried the Brake Motive brakes (ebay brakes). I too am taking a risk and trying them out. I'm not hard on my car and it was a pretty good deal. =)

    What I need to know is what are the torque specs for the caliper bolts. For when he puts the stuff back together. I don't want my brakes falling off and he wasn't aware that the bolts needed to be torqued down. As far as I've read there are specific torque values for these bolts.
    Thanks for any help!

    Just wrench them down tight, I've done hundreds of them and never once used a torque wrench.
    Mine: 1998 Trans Am - 6.0L and T56 swap, C6 brakes, nitrous, not slow
    Brother 1: 1998 Grand Prix GT 2-door - 3.8L SC and 5-spd manual swap coming soon
    Brother 2: 2000 Grand Prix GTP 4-door - stock until he learns to stop breaking his junk.
