Unless you are doing open track often, the 11" rotors and GM Calipers provide quite adequite stopping power, they aren't as nice to look at as a set of Brembo, Baer or Wilwoods, but the expense is much less too. Combine them with Mustang Cobra or TBird Turbo Cpe rear brakes and it makes a very good inexpensive package. Ive been using this combo for several years with no regrets . Pictures are in my gallery,
Leaning this way, just a cruiser and sometimes wind her out. BTW, Is the brake fluid DOT 3?
Would love to go with the high end stuff, but at the end of the day, my '92 is only worth around $28,000 , I paid that this year then already put a couple grand in it. Guess it will come down to if there is a decent Christmas bonus this year lol.
