Are Cross drilled and/or big brakes kits worth it? Who makes the best.
Are Cross drilled and/or big brakes kits worth it? Who makes the most durable, heat resistant, and the least likeily to warp, & crack. I'm a weekend racer, and a aggresive driver, who lives on a mountainess, covery road.

get more aggressive pads and brake cooling kit (usually a duct). they will give you a lot more benefit for 1/10th the cost of a big brake kit.

Biggest bang for your buck is what was said. You can do very well with Brembo "blank" rotors and a set of Hawk or Performance Friction or similar pads for
NON-street use. Is have used the AEM pads for HPDE with great results on the Brembo rotors-no warping or other nasties if you 'bed them in' properly. All out competition is a matter that you will have to find pads that work to your style while being properly cooled.
Just a note-some sanctioning bodies do NOT allow drilled rotors. Slots in my view are also useless for the most part.

depends on what u drove and how good thestock brakes are. usually big brake kit wont help casuse most people just dont brake hard enough to have a need for big brake kit. most stock system these days are ver well engineered all u need would be good pads and rotors. Unless u feel your brake fade dont worry about it.
