If people are wondering how much brake you need when pushing it to the limit on the track...

My brother runs 1000kg Harrison - 320+rwhp
Front: 300x32mm DBA4000 slotted Kangaroo Paw vented rotors. Skyline R32 GTR 4 piston calipers with Race Brakes pads. (Closest compound you can get to full race and still be able to pull up cold on the street(0 degrees)
Rear: 300x18mm DBA4000 slotted Kangaroo Paw vented rotors. Skyline R32 GTR 2 piston calipers with same compund Race Brakes Pads as front.

Front rotors have ducted air from front brake intakes.
Using Castrol GP600 fluid.

This set up is not enough...Woody brake pedal if it is pushed too hard.

Looking at better air ducting from front nose area where there is postive pressure. And maybe moving to full race pads and swapping in street pads for road use.

As most Cobra's are heavier than this one and some here are producing more power...If you want to go 100% on the track will need good brakes.
