Brakes

yanno its funny...

I have stock 16v brakes in the front and cross drilled zimmerman (all mintex
pads) on my 8v and that puppy wil stop on a penny! (g60 M/C)+ S/S lines.
I have brembo cross drilled all around with feroddo pads on the 16v and it
takes at least twice the distance to brake.(stock 16v M/C)

I think its is not onlty the type of rotors but the combinasion of the brake
pads brake fluid and lines also that make a difference.
I will be changing the feroddo for the mintex pads in a short amount of time
because these are driving me nuts. and add S/S lines.

my 2 cents worth.
