Hey guys i put on some slotted stoptechs today on my 02 wrx

After the install the brake pedal is extremely mushy and it doesn't feel like the brakes actually catch till your almost to the ground...

The E-brake became really loose also but i tightened it and now its good again.

Im thinkin I just need to bleed my brakes.

yes..no? anything else i should check out?


Thanks,
Theo

 

Bleed em...

What fluid are you using?

 

Did you use new brake pads or did you just change the rotors? Did you clean and wash the new rotors before the install? New rotors usually have a coating of oil on them and can mess up the braking. From my experience new rotors should be always bedded it to the brake pads.

 

i just bled the fluid n bed the pads in.

im using hawk hps pads
stoptech slotted rotors
super blue racing fluid

feels good now

 

Nice setup...enjoy!
