    eg brake conversion for time attack

    Hi all, I'm looking at doing a brake conversion in the near future for my 94 eg and was wondering what experience/ suggestions you fellas had on the topic in relation to high performance for time attack, preferably the cheaper (although not shittier) options...

    Item 1.

    Get race pads. Should consider upgrading brake booster and brake master cylinder (at least do some research to see if your OEM ones will get the job done or not, but I doubt it).

    Braided brake lines would be nice too.

    First, what sort of power do you intend to get from your engine?
    That will determine what you need for brakes.

    If you're going high power - then you would really want to consider running bigger rims and bigger brakes.

    282 ROTORS, ITR Callipers and Ferodo DS2500 Pads would be enough I reckon

    what if hes running a D16 motor.. i doubt he'd need itr calipers n rotors...
    Russell youll have to tell us how much power you have as e240 said.

    like wise if he's got a supercharged 350kw K whatever, ITR calipers and rotors aren't going to cut it.

    cheapest option would be ek4/eg6 hubs with redrilled 282 rotors with type r callipers(good pads), then the dc2r brake booster and master cylinder, and then good tyres.
    if that dosnt cut it spoon callipers are awesome and use the same pad as the dc2r
    wider stickier tyres
    make sure your tyres are good and allignment/ pressures allow maximum tread contact for what the car is used for, alot of people overlook this and there is many a second to gain from a proper allignment and set pressures

    I'm running an N/A D15 with soon to be improved intake and exhaust. Stock internals, never been on the dyno - I'd say good for 100kw when I've converted intake and exhaust...
