So I been looking into upgrading the front brakes. I looked into the KVR python and Brembo kits but honestly Im not to stoked on the idea of spending almost $3g on brakes.. Its worth every penny Im sure but DAM!!!..
Any way I been looking at the kit Batinc.net provides for a 300mm dimple surface rotor, ebc sport caliper, pads, and all the hardware for 699 US. Now this is what i am talking about. Then when I picked up the new Focus Fanatic I see they did a article on these brakes. HMM...makes me wanna whip the visa out right now lol but....
First I just want to get more opionions. What should I be really looking at? I have never had to buy brakes or ever had deal with this topic before so Im not sure. Its all new to me. I just want something that is going to fill in the 18" rim, I want a lower dust but most important I need something that its going to provide me with better stopping power and something that is going to last for when I get the turbo kit in... This is one area where I dont want to be cheaping out on since this is the most important thing on a car when coming to safety but I dont want to be paying to much...
