(guessing you have standard XR rims).DBA 4000's are a good upgrade. Brake pads are depending on driver.Brembos $3000 for front with rotors plus rims4000's around $170-200 each disc plus pads.haha and no mate. all four brakes work when pressing the accelerator.

Guest Guests Posted 15/03/09 12:08 PM Posted 15/03/09 12:08 PM For street use I'd go 4 piston brembos or at most the 6 piston fronts. For trach use id reccomend 6 piston front 4 piston rear.Generally prices are,4pots $25006pots $32006/4's $5500Ebay has a few bargins every now and then.

PBR C6 fronts with the PBR rotors and PBR performance pads and braided lines. Get the brake line bracket from Fraud and you will spend 1500 odd dollars and have excellent braking for street, and a few laps on the track.

Or should we leave it as is and embark on a viral marketing campaign with Adrian's superbly more funny response???
