elmariachi. what about ur caliber and does ur setup squeak?

not at all. i had problems with my zimmerman and and mintex bradepads. the problem was both was too hard material and resulted in squealing. now my rotors are quite hard and my brakepads are slightly softer in material. result - Excellent braking and feel compared to stock ones!

how's brake dust compared to stock? are the brembo rotors slotted ?

brake dust not as bad as stock ones but who cares when u can brake ur car so much better and i mean ALOT better than stock. Yes, the brembo rotors are slotted and are heat treated for high temperature withstand.

Brembo is very nice looking. But at $6K, it's a lot of money for the look!

of course it is brah!

1x pair rotor slotted discs front
1x pair normal discs rear
2x pair ferodo DB premium brakepads

all for 800 or abt there i think not significantly more. the brake effect in the car is woot!

Re: what to upgrade for brakes?

i managed to talk to my garage mechanic and he says he got a new revision of the slotted brembo rotors. He told me if that 5 cars can do, he will reduce the price by abt 15% per car for the setup. For those interested, u can go directly to him and find out abt the cost and procedures involved.I am not earning anything out of this and is only for the benefit for those who find BBks quite expensive. Of course braking would nto be as solid as the BBKs, but having driven on stock rotors and brakepads, it is ALOT ALOT of difference. so i will just likst 1-5 here and u guys can fill up it it interests you.

anyway my mechanics place is at :

CK Motorsport
AMK Autopoint
Its on the first floor not sure the address. u can prob msg me if u need to know exactly where.

Cheers all.
