Brake upgrade suggestions - 09/18/13 08:58 PM
Well, I need new brakes, its time. Stockers aren't cutting it anymore. I pretty much have to stand on them to stop, I plan on bleeding them this weekend for the time being. So instad of replacing with stock replacement stuff I'm trying to research what is available out there now.
This is what I have currently:
Stock power brakes (master and booster replaced 10 years/maybe 10,000 miles ago)
Stock disks (11in?) up front, drums out back.
I just upped to 18" Mustang FR500 9" and 10" wide wheels with Nitto NT05 tires (275's and 295's). Plans are for a dependable driver with some Auto-x, maybe road course once a year.
If I redo the system, I want to replace the hard lines with stainless and possibly go with braided stainless flex line.
I've seen Wilwood has kits for front and back. I've seen people run Viper brakes, and I heard of possible SRT kit?
Trying to decide if I want to stay with drums out back or go with disks.
What is out there. What seems to be a popular choice? What to stay away from?
Any input is appreciated.
