Hi
I have a good running engine and soon will have a great transmission.
What I need now is to be able to stop. stopping is good..
Anyway i have 15" rims and can't fit a 13" rotor so I have to stick with the 10.8" rotor. I have used the search function and this is what I see as my best option, any other suggestions ?

Thinking about drilled and crosshatched rotors,
with '99 calipers... The 99's have PBR dual piston calipers.
Stainless brake lines.


Here is an article I found about doing this..

With that engine you have U NEED A PARACHUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They allow that in Ohio you know...........

The only thing I've heard about the slotted rotors is that they don't grab that well when they are cold.....but I don't know from personal experience......
.....thinking about them myself...

I've heard this too.

I'd say you would be in good shape with the PBR's, slotted/drilled rotors, and some good brake pads; Hawk's maybe...

Don't know how it is around you guys, but where I'm at in Ohio with these drivers a parachute probably wouldn't be a bad idea lol.
