So I'll be getting a few parts soon that will bump hp a tad and I am wondering if the oem brake calipers are adequate.

I know I'll need to upgrade pads/fluid and maybe ss lines for feel.

Anyone got tips on recommend brake setup?

They are more then adequate. Even when you start tracking high end pads will be good for a while.

We talking bolt ons?

Step up to a better pad like Wjnmax W3, Project Mu HC+800, G-Loc R6, Fedoro DS2500 with better fluid and some SS lines and you'll be set.

FI I dont have experiance with but for DD they should still be ok imo. Might need W5/Carbotec XP8 or XP10, etc for track. Maybe even straight to Some Club Racers or 999s. Talk to the 86Cup guys, CSG, or Elitr for advice on that one

Thanks for the tips guys. Probably chat up Elite for recommendations since they are local.

Thanks finch for the list. Gives me a general idea on what pads to run!


Cheers!

I have a bunch of the snack size packs lol.
