I have reached the point where I feel like my stock 13" cobra setup has met its limit. I already have upgraded pads and rotors, and I'm sure I could do well with a stainless line upgrade and some top of the line fluid, but I feel like It might be best to do an upgrade.
My car makes in the 1000 wheel hp range, weighs less than 3500 with me in it, and I do a lot of 1/4mi passes and roll race events. At the last event, stopping the car from 160+ was not the easiest task. Especially when I was lined up with z06's and Porche's that stop with ease.
I have been trying to do some research but all I can really find is information about road racing guys, brake fading, rotor temp after multiple laps, etc. I need more information regarding the most benefit in stopping the car from high speed.
I have been looking at the 00R kit (to give the option to keep 17's in front), and the 6pot Wilwood 14" kit. Also a DIY kit from FTR that uses adapter brackets to mount 14" brembo 4 pot brakes from the 11+ cars. In the end, all will be about the same cost.
I am sure it doesnt help my cause much that I have 10.5" gt sized rear rotors, but I do that to run 15" wheels.
I would love to hear any insight from you guys on this. I am by no means a braking expert.
