Re: Brake upgrade recommendations
The other guys already posted the proper fix actions, if you are on a budget

go to the SSBC website. I installed their rear disk upgrade along with
larger front calipers from a Lincoln LSC and it was like driving a whole new
car. We're talking BMW touring coupe like stopping power on a budget.
