Thread: BBK suggestion

  1. #1

    BBK suggestion

    I started to feel the oem brake were getting softer, looking for a set of BBK upgrade.

    A few brands available for s2k like:

    Spoon
    Ap racing
    Stoptech
    Villwood
    Brambo
    Ect, can you guys give me some suggestions I really need to improve the stopping performance...

    Thanks

    Apparently some bbk's void insurance if you have an accident. Only heard so, havn't looked into it, so if anyone knows for certain, I'd appreciate your experiences.

    Just to suggest

    OEM brakes are fine for any road thrashing you can do.

    If your brakes are getting soft ( overheating pads or fluid) then it's time for braided lines , new fluid and sports pads. Perhaps even slotted discs. You don't need a $2k+++ BBK

    This. But don't go slotted rotors.

    Unless you're regularly going track days (regular as in more than 8 times a year)/endurance racing AND driving the car to it's absolute limits... then maybe look at a BBK. But sorry I highly doubt any of those are the case on OH

    blanks are fine....but why not slotted ? Cross drilled can (depending on design) be a waste of time and safety

    With brakes, I strongly recommend you disclose it to your insurance company. Many accept it as a modification. If you have a claim and they see your aftermarket brakes, it will be the easiest way for them to deny your claim.

    The main problem S2k rotors face is cracking. Slotted rotors only alleviate the problem. I would never recommend cross drilled either. Blank rotors are cheaper and will last longer typically

    Sorry but why are s2k rotors prone to crack ? Can you back this up with some examples for everyone to observe


    Remember that a BBK comes with slotted/dimpled and possibly cross drilled rotors as standard too ?
