Tazz: your details are amazing.

Now I don't know much about mechanics/brakes, but I can tell you what I've learned the hard way as I've burned up a lot of brakes.

If you are interested in road racing and are not sure you want to change the calipers and rotors, then consider putting on metal brake lines, motul 600 brake fluid and racing porterfield pads (R4) in the front. You can also do that in the back. This is a great place to start without spending a ton of money, although your racing pads could run around $400.00. Your brakes will squeal. We just took off my Porterfields in the front and they held up incredibly well. The first set I didn't fry.

Now, if you want a really big brake set for major road racing, then you can consider the Stop Techs brakes, calipers. But you'll need to make room for the big calipers. Make sure, if you use a spacer, it is hubcentric. Otherwise, your favorite mechanic or body shop guy is going to have to sand down the outside of your brand new expensive calipers to make a good fit without the spacers. Just don't watch when they do it, it helps reduce the pain.

Just thought you all would like some good advice from a girl who really doesn't know much, except that she just wants to drive fast and hard.

Good luck.
