I just put those on my 1st gen about a month ago. I have had no problems. The only issue is the brake dust, it's all over the rims already.
I just did the front brakes, obviously, since the rears are drums.
The performance is much improved over the stock brakes. They feel like regular brakes when the are cold but when they warm up, they are almost too good - you need to get used to not slamming your foot down like you did with the stock brakes or they'll put you through the windshield (not really, but that's how it feels).
Make sure you or your installer does the break-in procedure that comes with the brakes - it will increase the life of the brakes.
