Braking. What’s stopping you ?

@RogueOffroad, what kit would you recommend for a budget friendly, daily driver, 99% street use? I'm upgrading to 37's and would like to upgrade my braking alongside the larger tires. Nothing crazy, just safe and not super expensive.

Your stage 4, Powerstop, etc?
 
So our Stage 5 is amazing. Just upgraded to Alcon on our TRX and was just overall blown away with how well the stage 5 did vs these BBK kits. Stage 4 is good, as well along with the EBC kits. Powestop is better than stock but marginally.

Slotted Ebc with yellow pad is a much better and overall improvement over stock?
 
Well, I finally need new rotors and pads and placed an order for the Stage 4 kit! I've been distracted lately with a 2013 Z06 that I'm tracking at COTA!

Installing these today! There is not much wear on the stock pads and rotors after 50k miles.

These god damn 13/16 bolts holding the calipers on have loctite on them and you need 100ftlbs of force to turn the fuckers almost the whole way out! I only had to hammer one rotor off so far.

Apply some heat to those bolts and they'll back right out.
