Full Stillen Bolt-On Setup - Videos!

I used ATE Super Blue and Hawk HP+ at the autocross and the problem was exactly the same. It seems to be that once the heat buildup reaches the calipers

I used ATE Super Blue and Hawk HP+ at the autocross and the problem was exactly the same. It seems to be that once the heat buildup reaches the calipers it goes to hell. Autocross isn't quite as punishing as track because you get 10 minutes of cool down between runs, but once the heat soaks in there it's all done. So much for the sport brakes, I'm beginning to think that the smaller floating caliper on the base model might work better than this sh!t.

Your right...once you fluid is hot you gotta have the SS lines...rubber lines are no good once temps get extreme.
