I have to agree with Andy. You may be happy with the brakes now, but if you track your car in the future, you may find them to be a little lacking. I haven't done my brakes yet, I did suspension first, but after my first track experience, my 4th & final run for the day, I began to experience the brakes were overheating. I don't think you need to spend the thousands on a Brembo kit, but I think for <$1000 in parts, you can put stoptech rotors on the front with Dali air deflectors, better pads and stainless brake lines. For suspension, I think a little lowering, stiffer sway bars, & non-compliant toe links from Comptech will work wonders. Then spend the rest on lots of track time to gain the experience required to drive really fast safely (which is where the fun is). Then if you feel you need more acceleration in the straights, you will have had time to save up mo' $ for those real expensive engine mods.

[QUOTE="nsx4fun, post: 70156, member: 4858"] I have to agree with Andy. You may be happy with the brakes now, but if you track your car in the future, you may find them to be a little lacking. I haven't done my brakes yet, I did suspension first, but after my first track experience, my 4th & final run for the day, I began to experience the brakes were overheating. I don't think you need to spend the thousands on a Brembo kit, but I think for <$1000 in parts, you can put stoptech rotors on the front with Dali air deflectors, better pads and stainless brake lines. For suspension, I think a little lowering, stiffer sway bars, & non-compliant toe links from Comptech will work wonders. Then spend the rest on lots of track time to gain the experience required to drive really fast safely (which is where the fun is).
