v6 BIG BRAKE UPGRADE


What is needed to upgrade my stock 01 pbr calipers and rotors to a 13" kit?

Besides the calipers and rotors themselves...

the pads and the calipers brackets as well should do it. Just make sure that your wheels will clear it. SS lines are a plus as well.

for 13" rotors you need at least a 17" wheel or bigger

SS lines are a plus as well

are the stainless steel brake lines worth the stiffer feel?

SS lines are probably one of the single best mods you can do to your brake system.

not sure with a v6 honestly.

I upgraded to Cobra brakes without changing anything other than the rotors, calipers, caliper brackets, ss lines, and pads.
