Nissan brake caliper question...

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

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.
