I completed my Brake upgrade project today. I installed the SS Brake Lines I ordered from THMotorsports today. Swapped out to some ATE Premium Brake Fluid (thanks to Adam @ THM also) too. Combined with Axxis Ultimate F/R Pads that I picked up from THM a few months ago, the end result is a much more sure feeling to the Brake Pedal. Very firm. I have not had the chance to push the brakes hard enough to confirm this, but I would suspect there is no longer any brake fade of any kind. I certainly would never get any sort of fade on public roads. Going to a track day next weekend so I will see how hard I can push them then. I doubt I will see any fade at the track either. I can tell you, the feel is confidence inspiring.

The kit was shipped the day I placed my order and it arrived Two days later. The kit came with everything needed to complete the swap. It was a breeze to install I really took my time and I was done in under three hours including the brake fluid swap. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for an improvement in brake feel. While you are at it swap out the Pads and Fluid and the difference will be remarkable. The total cost for this project was less than $250.00, pretty good bang for my buck I would say.

 

b4 u go visit ur track, you should bed your new pads.

 

Absolutely. I got the pads a few months ago. Bedded them well and let the car sit over night to complete the process.
