After track time in Oct and slowing down from 116 MPH, I decided to up-grade my brakes this winter.


1. Change from flxible rubber lines to braided lines
2. Change front discs and pads. I have the original 2-pc rotors.
3. Change rear drums and shoes. I have the original drums.

Looking for recomendations on upgrades to flexible lines /pads / shoes /rotors and calipers that are all bolt-in.

I'm running Amer Racing Torque Thrusts 15x7 fronts, 15x8.5 rear

I'm running silicone brake fluid

Street car w/ several track days planned next year.

2. Change front discs and pads. I have the original 2-pc rotors. Best guess here is to get one piece rotors (any parts house) and a performance pad, such as Hawk3. Change rear drums and shoes. I have the original drums. Big car rear drum brakes to fit your F body axle http://www.mpbrakes.com/products/product-detail.cfm?product_id=493
