Does anyone know much life I will get out of the front brake pads? I currently have 67,000km on the original front pads and they dont seem to be wearing out quickly at all. Rears are another story, had to change those at 44,000km.
Pad life varies a lot depending on driving conditions and driving habits. I do expect my front pads to go over 50k miles easily while the rear pads might not even reach 45k miles.

You should be able to see the pads from the access panel at the top of the calipers, you may need to turn your wheel to get a better look at it however.
Not a perfect measurement by any means but it will give you a good idea.
Besides your wear indicators will start squeaking on you once they get really low.
My brakes squeal often at parking speeds, but are very easy to see. I can not speak to the OEM pad life. I have ATC OFF in personal mode to keep the rear pads from being used unnecessarily.

I have seen it used many times on several different manufacturers vehicles without removing the wheel but removing the wheel does make it a bit easier.
I've been looking into getting a Fast Intentions cat back exhaust. I know in the past these exhausts are a long-lead time before actually receiving them. However, their site is now listing 3-5 weeks, which sounds great!
I also noticed that they provide a muffler selection option. They've...

What's the difference between the catted full vs lower down pipe? Isn't that the same thing as stock primary cats with lower down pipes? Or is because the catted full has a higher flowing cat over stock?
I also heard that with full, you may have to worry about boost spikes. I also heard with the...
