Doing my best
Guys,
Thanks for all the input and interest. Jon and I are doing are best into completing the planning phase of the brake kit. Again my goal is to aim for under $2000 for the final product. Where can you get such high quality and effective Brembo/Porsche product this cheap? As KKelly stated "...unless you are doing it just for looks, a 4 piston set up with a 13"-14" rotor should be sufficient for hard street and occassional track use. I think the Alcons and AP Racing are overkill for most cars, even those used quite often in driving schools. They don't actually stop your car that much quicker in an emergency stop on the street than the stock brakes -- it is the additional stops where their heat capacitiy improves your braking." The kits that Ziel designed before all fit into such a parameter.
