you can get larger calipers but your better off doing a complete package from calipers to rotors to even maybe master cylinder..

the biggest part in braking is getting rid of the heat.. when the brakes get hot the friction is reduced lowering the brakes effect

that's very right but some times suddenly you face something and need to stop immediately then what to do????

even on slow speed caprice brake is insufficient compared with Honda accord brake (as example)
