i didn't know we had brembo brakes.
Brembo's latest big brake kit with 1-piece rotor comes with powerful 4 piston calipers, carriers, stainless braided brake lines, option of race or street pads, and 13" Brembo race rotors! Calipers colors are available in black, red or silver. These rotors have directional veins and are either available in cross-drilled or slotted options. The 13" 1-piece rotor can absorb and dissipate much more heat without warping than most 2-piece rotors. Using Goodridge DOT approved brake lines for solid pedal feel you have your choice of pads for street, autocross, or race at no extra charge. Believe it or not the Brembo 1-piece kit is still lighter than the factory brakes!
i run brembo crossdrilled and slotted rotors mon mintex pads... VERY happy. never experianced brake fade and if u ever drive with me ull know i like to hit the brakes HARD.
I have slotted Brembo rear rotors (stock size) to match my slotted Stoptechs in the front. I running them with Mintex pads. So far so good, no rust or wear problems.
My friend has them on his 91 MR2 and he said he can feel the diference from stock and that they squeak a tiny bit during light braking.
cad plated brembo cross-drilled w/ PBR metal master pads. I'm not nice to brakes (auto-x has a tendancy to do that). But, this set up has lasted me 1.5+ plus. Why should I switch to anything else? And yes, the car is driven year round.
I have brembo's w/mintex I'm happy with performance but they rusted. I will spend the extra $ to get cad plated next time.
If everything bolted together like it should, the brakes would be great although you might need wheel spacers for the stock wheels as the caliper bodies portude slightly.
