wait, iirc there are two rotor sizes, 26mm for the n/a and 30mm for the tt. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the larger setup will work

Great , thx for all u guys reply ... also is the Z32  brake up grade will make that much diff in braking ? cause i do go track alot and now my brake sux really bad even tho i have brembo rotor front and back, and with PBR brake pad , still doesnt; do any good ... so what should i do .. reallly go with Z32 brake up grade or what ??

BlackFox · 05-02-2002, 09:54 AM

All you need is the Brembo big brake kit, yeah, i know it costs $3k but I'm getting my business license so I can get it for much less, not sure the exact number yet, but I'll post something up when I get it set up.

13" rotors
3cm wide rotors
4 piston caliper
cross drilled and slotted

yes it can be felt and is a very good upgrade imho.

you will feel a lil mushyness for the first 1/2 inch or so of pedal travel. overall its a reall good braking setup.

and as far as brembro brakes for 3k?! pah!i did my whole swap for
50 a caliper rebuilt
100 for 2 stock oem rotors
32 for oem pads
90 for 4 steel lines
around 21 bucks for misc items like pins and shims

so even if you can get it less than 3k like 2 k i think its a waste unless your a serious serious auto x or sponsered.

or just rich up the ass

Where is a good online site to pickup the z32 30mm irop calipers, and the oem rotors?  Also, how much should I expect to pay for the whole set up including the steel braided brake lines?  Thanks for the help in advance.

Funny - I go to the track w/ stock calipers and OEM rotors and have no problems whatsoever.

Maybe it's your fluid.  What kind of pads are those?  

I use CarboTech Panther+ pads and ATE SuperBlue fluid.  The only time I had any problems was the first time when I was using Wilwood fluid - that stuff sucks!  It boiled and I lost pedal feel at the end of the day.
