at lunchtime. The way I figure it, the front brakes will do more work now and the tendency for them to want to lock up will be greater. The thing is, we have ABS so that will keep them from locking and sliding. The rear brakes dont really do that much work in our cars. We have a 45/55 weight bias with most of that weight up front. I will most likely do a rear brake upgrade consisting of crossdrilled and slotted rotors with some good pads in them. They are a pretty decent diameter for what they do and good rotors & pads will go a long way back there. Perhaps down the road once I get this part of it finalized and tested and I am assured of my fababilities :) then I may consider putting a set of our front calipers on the back. I am concerned with the rotor thickness back there though as it is a thinner rotor and I wouldn't want pistons to start popping out of the calipers. :) And an e-brake is a necessity. :)
: REAR brakes. After going to much or anything bigger than stock on the front, the rear needs to be upgraded. Maybe a bracket to mount the front rotors and calipers on the rear? Come on you can do it, and who needs a parking brake anyway?
