Default ooooooo...skip barber......

I've wanted to do driving school for a long time. Pretty much for the reasons you said. I think I know how to drive pretty well, but I would love the extra added knowledge of knowing what the car can handle and REALLY how to handle it. One day I'll do that.

The other thing about me wanting new brakes is that I don't fully trust my stocks brakes anymore. When I slam on them, the car seems to wiggle a little more than I'd like. More so than other cars I've driven. Really knowing how to drive is good! But being able to stop helps too!

Default pads and fluid flush may fix your current brake issues and would be much cheaper

but I still think you should get a BBK

Default At the very least...

I'm gonna to look into it. If nothing else to price it out. I've heard many many good things about Stoptech so I'd been thinking that could be the way to go. Off to their site now. This could get costly!! But hey! That's what credit cards are for, right?

Default Brembo (ECS Stage 2 v1)...

Mainly got them because they were cheap. They are hand-me-downs from someone who moved "up" to StopTechs. Guess that should tell you something?
