[quote=“02AccordCoupe,post:17,topic:28594"”] Prety much what i wonder… I have a 3200lb slug, yea it stops good with my brembo blanks and axxis ceramic pads, but after a few hard stops going into the swervies those things get stupidly weak, and id like to be able to kick abs on at 60 or so… 😉 [/quote] Try Carbotech XP-12s.

For as many people swear by Brembos twice as many just buy cheap Chinese rotors. Who uses ABS for _performance_? It’s a safety feature, next time pop out the ABS fuse. Many passenger car companies don’t program the controller to optimize threshold braking. Did you put K-Sport/D2 (same company) in the same sentence with really good? ---

I know what ABS is and does… I pulled the wire on my ABS in my cavvie, but the ABS on my accord auctually is nice on dry pavement, it helps save my ass when im barreling into a turn at 80… The ABS fuse also kills power to the stability controll and whatnot… And yes, i did… I like the D2 and K-Sports… They look nice, and how bad can they be? I know… theyre the same company and are made in taiwain? ---

yeah, what this comes down to is that ur not gonna find REALLY GOOD parts(especially brakes) cheap. Just get Stainless lines and good brake pads. Oh, and learn how to drive. It sounds to me like ur relying too much on ur brakes and just slamming on them through corners. Be more fluent in ur driving. brake gracefully and before u get into turns. Braking hard at 60 and kicking into abs is generally not a good idea. especially on public roads. its a good way to get rear-ended ---

I dont fuck around with other cars around, and i sure as shit dont hold the brakes during corners, im back on it by then 😉 The abs never really turns on… my brakes cant lock up the tires above 30.
