Thanks. The stopping power is unreal with track pads. I measured it out and there is 57% more pad area. ABS is real easy to find until I get my new tire setup.

Depends if you piece it together yourself or buy a kit. JDP sells a kit for 1900-2100 give or take.
I pieced it together: 440 for calipers 200 for track pads 160 for lines 580 for ZL1 rotors 25 for hardware kit So 1400 plus whatever you want to do for color. The dual cast rotors would be a couple hundred cheaper. Just gotta be resourceful when it comes to part numbers and not care what color caliper you get as a starting point. |

I did because of switching to Motul for the brakes. At a minimum you need to flush your brakes once a year with racing brake fluid. The clutch is such a bitch to bleed unless you put a remote bleeder in. And that requires you dropping the trans to install it. I still run DOT3 in the clutch and have never experienced a soft clutch, even on back to back 95 degree race days. I just suck out the reservoir and refill and pump the clutch a few times to refresh it. Eventually I'll install the Tick bleeder line I bought, just not up to dropping the trans at the moment.
