I just finished the install today, and barely had a change to burnish the pads...
so far so good. I did 3 50 mph hardstops and was pretty impressed! Bleeding took forever, started early today, but apparently didn't get all the air out, so when I first tried it...oops almost no brakes! Had to rebleed,and I still think there is air in there. I ended up using the VAG to modulate the ABS and master cylinder, then rebleeding.
The BIGGEST obstacle, my front wheels hit!!! F'n A!! I had to borrow my friend's spacer to clear it, and first thing Monday, I'll email OZ to see if they can make me a new front. Right now, they are sitting a little too far out and occassionally scrape. I'm going to swap out to my narrower rims until I get this all settled. I don't really want to sell my rims! I just need the fronts to have more backspacing.

so far so good, I think I need to rebleed the system...how'd your pedal feel compare to
stock after you were done?
Also, what size are your front rims? Off set? Are you using any spacer? Do you know the back spacing?
