Yup - non power assisted brakes on my first charger -gives the thighs and seat retaing bolts a good work out.
Also tends to make your stops rather sudden the first time you get into a car with power brakes
- as for cobras - I have the jag 4 pot calipers with EBC green pads and standard jag on the rear.
they seem to have plenty of bite, haven't felt them fade yet.
its seems like the fronts overpower the rears a little but not enough to make it an issue yet.
