biased99 Forums Junkie Registered: May 2002	Re: Wilwood Brake Calipers Thu, 10 July 2003 23:02 Hmmmm...I also need to look at whatever options there are as regards brakes. I took the Cressida over to Wakefield a few weeks back for one of their open practice days and had a few runs. Suffice it to say that the stock brakes (and supension, for that matter) were the "weak" links in the setup... First run: Absolute crap, as I'd never been on the track before, and had no idea about where turn-ins were etc. Second run, had a nice dual with a V12 E-Type Jag (Now that thing sounded nice thru the 4 pipes sticking out the back! Only got slowed up by, of all things, a JZA80 Supra (in all fairness, the bloke had only just come onto the track and was "getting his bearings"...Still, must have been funny to see a Cressida drive around a Supra... Third run, got a nice few laps in, then brakes started to get spongy, and I had a bloke in an AU 6-pack Falcon shadowing me through the corners. (Of course, I drove away from it down the straight bits! ) Anyway, moral is: I need better brakes! So who can help with some info on options for a decent upgrade for this thing? Come on guys...Anything that will do the job, and allow me to retain my (17") rims etc... [Report message to a moderator]
