Brakeage


It's time for new brakes because I think HMUSN jizzed on them or something, lol. I want to buy new rotors, calipers and pads, but I want to go high-performance since I would be going that route anyway. So, any suggestions? Cross-drilled preferred, and remember that I have 15" stocker wheels. Thanks!

yup...need them pretty soon, too, since they make a horrible rubbing noise on takeoff up to 35mph, and they are screamo brakes, lol.

braided break line, cross drilled rotors and 2 piston calipers from wilwood or baer(both make kits to fit under 15in rims), project mU break fluid you will never have trouble stopping to do all 4 breaks will run about 18-2500

yeah the rotors are junk though, dont buy rotors of ebay they are rarely in balance and need to be ground normally, a cobra break conversion is nice but almost pointless without 17s since you still have the small rotors

my suggestion was pretty hard core, you can get a break upgrade kit from brembo for like 800
