Brake Calipers
Brake Calipers
Don't really know, but why do you feel the need to do that ? Is it for looks or do you feel your brakes aren't stopping you quickly enough ? What brake discs and pads do you have currently ?
Same Q, the IS brakes are good for about 300 to 350hp, if i was you i would get better discs & pad, like i have on my car, and my car has alot more power than most
Think you've already got uprated pads (EBC ?) and braided hoses, haven't you Asi ? Which is why I was kind of suprised that wasn't enough. I wonder if the pads aren't suiting your discs though ?
Edit - or perhaps do your brakes just need bleeding ?
if its the GTR calipers from the other site then i'd be a bit unsure of them. they dont seem to grip a lot of the disk.
I have uprated my brakes with EBC disk and pads and also Goodridge brake lines and I do not have any problems with braking. As Marcus said OEM brakes can handle up to around 350hp (from what I know they are also fitted on the SC430 which is much heavier and powerful car and the brakes work fine). I think putting larger brake kits it is an exaggeration for a Supercharger car which has around 200hp, unless if someone wants to fit them for looks or unless if Asi is going for something more powerful. I think he stated somewhere in the forum that he might sell his sc kit.
the red stuff pads are for track days arent they? prob take a bit of time to warm up.
