    Let’s talk about brakes

    Now that I have much more hp in my cobra, the next logical thing to do to my car is better braking. What are you guys using for brakes? I’m possibly considering a big brake kit for the front.

    Substantial increase in braking power going to Cobra R kit on the front plus more aggressive pads all round. If your wheels will allow, even more gains with 6 piston calipers and larger rotors.

    Cobra R kit is best bang for the buck on good brakes IMO. Sometimes you can find them used. Upgrade to braided lines while your at it. ALWAYS need good brakes. I had them on the fox and it was amazing how heavy I could get on them and slow down quick. Best upgrade out of anything I did.
