If you want more braking power in the rear, run a more aggressive pad than you do up front. There's a reason front rotors and calipers are almost always bigger

 If you want more braking power in the rear, run a more aggressive pad than you do up front. There's a reason front rotors and calipers are almost always bigger than the rears... when you slow down weight transfers to the front of the car. The fronts need to be bigger, the rears don't.

 being honest, the Z already has more braking capacity out back than it can use. Also, no, you can't really bolt the fronts on the rear. Last edited by Red__Zed; 09-18-2011 at 08:38 PM. |
