Hi guys
So i decided to post the brakes upgrade i maded last month. All the story have a begining some time ago when with a friend we decided to have a street race and everything was ok until i had to brake in the limit from 200 km/h to cca 40-50km/h in a very short distance... After the braking the rear discs starts to vibrate realy bad so that was the moment of decision for upgrade
I searched on internet and found some solutions for my car which was direct replacment witouth modify anything...two weeks later the packages starts to come at my home
And inside was....
And....
And of course
When get this combo i decided to order another upgrade
So at this point...let's start to play [emoji1]
First thing to do is throw away the old discs and pads...they was horrible
After that i noticed that on the back side of the front calipers was a little of rust...i just can't leave it there...so...i decided to sandblasting them...after that the look like this...
After that i get a set of MOTIP which included primer, paint and lacquer resistant to hi temps...first the primer (two hands)
Then the colour (two hands)
And for the finish the lacquer (two hands)
I forgot to get a pic of the old hoses...but...let's start put things together...before anything is mounted it should be perfectly clean like this
Before the discs are mounted i recommend to put a bit of cooper grease on the hub to prevent squealing and corosion...so with the disc mounted it looks like this
Then the pads
After that i asembled the calipers bact together and put them on...the result

It's a good combo...but the EBC Red Stuff pads are just awful...after 5 "normal" brakings on the street from cca 150 km/h to cca 50 km/h in 8 km long travel i was not able anymore to stop the car securely and they smell burned...Before that i made cca 1000 km for brake in period but seems to no not be what EBC promises...Now i'm in contact with them to figure out what we can do for refund or replace... I think that i should take a set of Yellow Stuff but if still will cause any kind of braking problem i will go for FERODO DS2500
Thanks for reading and i apologize for my crappy English knowledge but i'm doing my best
