    Where to buy performance pads + superblue in PDX?

    I want to change my pads and bleed the brakes this weekend... kind of a last minute thing as my brake lining light came on today.
    Anyhow, is there anywhere in the Portland area that sells performance pads and superblue fluid?
    Any pads that y'all could recommend?

      Then pad wear sensor light doesn't constitute an emergency. The wear sensors don't contact the rotor and trip the light until only about 2mm of pad remains. That's enough pad material for 500-1000 miles of driving. That's plenty of time to order High Performance Street pads (or better) and have them delivered. I'm rather partial to Hawk HPS pads (or Hawk HP+ pads if you don't mind noise from the brakes).

      A good alternative to ATE Super Blue, that's readily available, is Valvoline SynPower. It's dry boiling point is only 30F lower than the ATE fluid, it won't stain your reservior, and costs about a third of what ATE does.
      The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
