just hard braking on street...

maybe you might want to soften your braking? hehehe....

what is exactly the problem here? brake fade?

there are a number of ways to improve the brake, including changing the brake pads, changing the rotors (grooved rotor and/or drilled rotor will help reduce heat, not to mention ceramic rotors... but they cost a fortune!), changing the brake line to ones that's stainless steel braided, changing brake fluid.

one thing to remember if changing brake pads, is that you need to know the operating temperature of the new pads. if only for street applications, you want brake pads that operates from 0 degree Celcius. Don't use race brake pads because they don't do well when rotor is cold.
