- VF SS Sportwagon
I was looking at getting some larger and more powerful brakes for the SS Sportwagon. Correct me if I'm wrong but standard are 2 piston front 1 piston rear with a slightly larger front rotor. Meaning a Redline would have 4 pistons at the front and 1 at the rear, which is a massive difference in front to rear bias.
I've always been attracted to the Harrop 355mm 4 piston front and rear brakes but wouldn't rears be locking up long before the fronts, with an even front/rear distribution (apart from thicker front rotors 32mm vs 28mm?)
Are the Harrops front and rear a good buy or should I just get the fronts done? Are there other brands I should be looking at that will fit the stock 18inch VF wheels which bias the front more than the rear?
Any input greatly appreciated.
