well i would presume that you have new brakes on order? if your gonna be stopping regularly at 70 mph. then get better brakes, otherwise the regular base brakes are more than enough stopping power.

no idea what caused you to have to stop suddenly at 70 plus mph but if you want to spend the cash on minimal gains over the stock brakes, (depending on what you get) go for it, i know i certainly dont go Balls out and to the wall everytime in the my car. i want to make it last and speeding on the highway is a good way to get my take taken away. lol

"soft and weak" has me wondering what exactly you were doing..... lol if it was on a track id understand ...the best defense to this andto avoid is using your eyes to see whats ahead and get ready for it (change to lower speeds and gears)
