I am looking for a brake upgrade for my fox. I want to go ahead and switch to 5 lug at the same time. I searched on yahoo and found nothing but cobra style brakes or better.

Even though I have a fox I and going to use sn95 spindles and sn95 length axles. I plan on buying '06 cobra replicas but i still want a extra set of rims with et slicks. WHat do yall recommend???

Well there is no way im geting crossed drilled rotors for the street. I have had a set on my car and they cracked.

What about a caliper upgrade though?

Powerslot is not cross drilled, they are slotted.

You need to look at Baer's sport kit. They make a upgrade with 12" rotors (5-lug or 4-lug) that will use the SN spindles. Tunedin posted a link in a thread about brakes a few weeks ago. Try searching for his name and see if you can find the link....
