[QUOTE="DSCobra01, post: 14940902, member: 13534"] Sirl and jg61354, changing gears slightly, considering my plans for the car, what would you say regarding brakes? [B]Rotors -[/B] I hear to stay away from cross drilled rotors as they are prone to cracking that much sooner. I do have a feeling that my stock rotors may be slightly warped so I'm looking to upgrade to either PowerSlot or Stoptech. What do you think? [B]Pads -[/B] Hawk is probably the most popular brand I see on the MM site as well as AmericanMuscle. Do you have another suggested brand or would I be ok with HP-Plus (considering they will be an improvement over stock and I will also use them on the street) [B]SS brake lines -[/B] MM has a kit for about $200 and AmericanMuscle has a brand called "Russell" for $150. Are all pretty much the same? [B]Fluid -[/B] I got a recommendation from someone I race with that Motul's RBF600 is a good fluid for the track that I can also use for the street. What are your thoughts? Part of me really wants the 2000 Cobra R big brake kit for the front but at around $1,200, it's a little out of my price range for everything else I need to do to get the car ready for the Fall. I also think it's a bit overkill for my current skill level as the Cobra brakes are pretty good to begin with. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
