I enjoyed the stock brakes, but brake fade is a huge issue with them for me, with these stoptechs no brake fade

That already looks great. Dont bother putting the wheel back on, just drive it around like that.

hahahah I didn't even notice, my bad

But yeah on track after about 20-25 minutes I was experiencing a lot of brake fade with the stock brakes. After installing the Stoptechs, not only could I brake later, but they never faded on me.

just up front, the rears might make a difference but it would be very marginal.
