It's a little more expensive than the cheap ones out there, but it's great quality. We track the car and they hold up great. Sigma_1966 01-02-08, 03:45 PM whats the adavntage to upgrading the brakes. How much will it cost me to upgrade and how much is installation Jon 01-02-08, 05:07 PM whats the adavntage to upgrading the brakes. How much will it cost me to upgrade and how much is installation I noticed much better pedal feel and stopping distance is better on the street. On the track it is much more noticeable and brake fade is much reduced. They don't get as hot. I think Luke sells it for $450 plus shipping. Not sure on install since we did it ourselves.

Depending on how your use is going to be, track days or just street driving. Pure race stuff isn't that good for the street. A good set of rotors and pads will be a good set up for the street and will cost a lot less. Hawk makes a good set of pads, I have them on mine, front and back, on the stock rotors and they are great for spirited street driving. | |
