Wakefield - defiently some weak points - brakes being the biggest then tires and suspension. Steering was OK though...

So I did a track day the other day and have finally decided to upgrade the brakes on my '04 Monaro - the stock ones are crap (as most of you would probably know), they really struggle to pull up the car quickly. Any recommendations on what to get? I know Holmart usually has some good deals on...
