Took the car out to test the new boost controller and had some fun with an EVO....when it came to braking his was slightly better until mine were absolutly crap and started smoking.The brakes then hardly worked at all and i decided to pull over 'till they cooled off.....

 

They seem to work ok now but i don't trust them.....think i need to change the pads for something better any ideas?????

It's as much the pads as it is the discs' and calipers problem. There is just too much bulk to slow down using the standard brake setup. If you're interested in upgrading pads only then speak to Smithy regarding his super-duper kevlar pads otherwise be patient for a couple more weeks (but hopefully sooner) and I'll be able to offer you brand new Skyline discs and brembo calipers (incl. s/s brake lines and high performance pads). I'm just about to finalise an agreement with a new supplier.

 

Cheers!

Yes, actually you can. The supplier has a kit which will fit standard 16" wheels.
