Review: K sport 8 piston 355mm big brake kit (front only)

[MR2]

yeah, there is honestly no reason to go Drilled at all, all the faces I'm interested in are some variety of slotted or blank!! The ABS is fine, essentially it does nothing until it senses a wheel has stopped rotating and then reduces the braking force to that wheel...still ran fine on my Ksports.

Nothing wrong with slotted rotors people. Nice write-up Mikey.

I guess you could deactivate the ABS if there were issues.

[MR2]

I guess, but ABS has been designed to work with pretty much anything that's thrown at it.

I'll next go measure my current brakes + cut a fitment card

[GTOJOE]

had this thought yesterday. How the hell can I tell if 360mm rotors will fit under my wheels. There must be some sort of diagram that can be cut out and tested......

very nice. i've still got a boner for some d2's. i lack funds.

[MRjayr]

whats the biggest rotor you can put on oem brakes mike?

[IPD]

for 2g's, i was under the impression it was around 330mm. on the fronts.

[mrgtott]

wait, are there any point to running larger rotors because the pads will be still in contact with the same surface area, only difference being the discs will have more material thus lower temperatures. Also can you actualy run 330mm on the 2nd gen brakes and if so where would you get them??
