    Default Brake Upgrade

    Hey all,
    I've read on here about people upgrading their brakes, what is it involved in this? Just getting new calipers and rotors? =S Any info would be appreciated.

    The best upgrade is the VE spec package for the front. 322mm slotted and dimpled rotors, VE calipers, lines, fluid and pads. I do this kit for $795. I also do the rear rotors slotted in the same pattern, an extra $170, plus $40 for the RDX pads and it will brake a lot better.

    There probably is, but you would most likely pay over the $1K mark.
