The car simply known as "The Talon"

Yeah, the big brakes are really needed more for repeated stops. Plus, even with stock pads, they were meant to haul down 3500 lbs of 2G plumpness, and no quick 1G weighs anywhere near that much. :D

Looks like I need to upgrade my 1 pistons.

What pads/rotors are you using xtc?

Oem mitsu rotors not cheap advance auto ones. Mach V has a killer deal on them right now and I am trying the axxis ultimate pads.

Wow, I didn't know they still made thos Axxis pads, I've been using them for 10 years with good results. I can't even remember the last time I changed them.

Yep. I used to have the metal masters and I liked them so these should do well.

Brakes are in, need to order lines now. Still waiting on fuel fittings ( starting to get pissed as I ordered them on feb 4th) Now I am looking for the best price on a set of hankook R-S3 tires in 225/50-16

For some reason TireRack has been the cheapest I've seen for RS3's of late.
