ATS? from where bro? btw u driving a 6AT or MT? coz if u're budget constraint, u can get the MT brakes calipers if urs a AT. and change to steel braided brake hose, and autoexe rotors and brake pads, i guess it might be within ur budget bro, its good enough bro, i've used this setting b4.

If you are budget constrained, might as well save up for proper setup, right? Why do you want to try this & that brand then if not good, gotta change again and end up wasting more money. Thought you said you learnt it the hard way in the 4 vs 6 pot thread? Still not scared to get burn by your experiments? Make your car slow nevermind, but brakes gotta do with safety so better think carefully man.
