[s-cars] NAC Pad advice sought

[Matthew Russell]

Thanks for all the suggestions. 
Installed the new pads and 4 bilstein TC's yesterday. I gotta tell you, it was an easier install then on the 3 S cars I've done this job!

Drive shaft plans will be tackled after the holidays. Appreciate the advice.
