    Do I need new Pads and Rotors or do I need to go BBK?

    I drive fast and take some nice corners with some speed when I go canyon driving. 10-30 min into the drive I can feel the brakes fade. It is to a point that I MUST slow down and let the system cool off a bit before I get on it again. I do this 1-2 times every 2 months.

    I fade the stock brakes when I do some spirited canyon driving and so brake upgrade is something I am considering. I can't decide if I will be ok with better pads (PBR/Axxis Metal Master) and new rotors (DBA) or should I fork over the money and go BBK?


    Some info:
    As of now I need new pads and maybe rotors. I am planning on doing some track runs (1-2 a year) eventually.
