Go to Racetech for VTTR, Yap Bro for JBT, Fong Kim has some dunno what brand.

I was advised by some regular trackies to consider E'spec, full size 4 pot, 2 pc rotor & steel braided hose for abt $1800. Can look for Leong Seng for those. [:)]

before you change, make sure your rim has enough "allowance" to fix this poison.~

 

anyway, go for 6pot, the braking will not be as jittering as 4pot. more smoother.~

moreover, since you already willing to buy, why not just pay a bit more for 6?~ =p

 

usually, what people do is to bring the front 2/4pot to the rear and get a good set of 4/6pot to fix on the front to look macho.~

mine is front disc rear drum, will a 6 pot over-power the rear?

Tot of 4 pot too...

 

btw all bbk or mini only able to use their own brake pads?

 

rear drum.. hmmmm... Lancer? Sylphy? Wish?

if rear is drum, I think you should stay the front disc as stock.

not about performance, just feel and look rather awkward...

The front may brake or kind of "dive" more than the rear....in my opinion....

 

Unless your car is high performance and you regularly track, 6 pot might be an overkill.

Are there any flat plane machined type of brake designs, similar to the AMG 6 and 12 pots?

 

Don't quite like the endless design with words and piston housing protruding out.

if going for 6pots, make sure all pistons are of the same size, else will have uneven wear...

btw, if you dont track, save yr $ and just upgrade yr rotors and pads with ss hoses will be more than enough.

Is Edix, as last ride is 4 disc, so find that stock brake for this ride not as good, maybe due to weight...
