AP Racing 6-piston 14.25" rotors on stock 18's?

zfever · 09-14-2017, 01:21 PM

I have the base model with the non-Sport brakes and I want to upgrade them. Even a light amount of spirited driving (and associated stopping) is enough to induce fade. I would not trust my brakes on any track event.

I'm open to the idea that maybe I don't need the AP racing kit, but I definitely want to upgrade them and I want to do it once. I don't want to get to the track and decide I should have spent another $2k in the first place and then have to pony up for another whole set of brakes.

I did print out the template for the 6-piston AP Racing kit and pulled one of my wheels off and it definitely would rub, so those are out unless I get new wheels.

So I'm thinking about getting the 4-piston front and rears unless there is a compelling reason to get something else?
