    New brakes fitted today

    Finally got round to getting my 996 brakes fitted today, with a8 disks, brembo pads and braided lines. Along with new disks and pads on the rear.
    Its about time as the old ones were not up to the job since the power upgrade.
    Once they are bedded in I will let you know what improvement they make. until then all I can say is they look good: thumbs:

      ah they will feel good, the difference between the stock and these is night and day, may need a couple of extra bleeds to bring them up to a nice firm pedal but they are worth it

        On the subject, I am waiting on some brakes that should be arriving soon and was wondering what the best, money no object brake fluid is to use. Am I right in thinking it should not be silicon based?

          Dot 4 and probably Castrol SRF or Motul RBF660 have really high boiling points and get well used for track days etc.
