Endless Brakes

More power is on the way so I really, really need need new brakes. Problem is, they cost an arm and a leg. Probably a kidney too.

3R1C,
I wish dude.

Amri,
I doubt there is such a thing as 'cheap and reliable brakes'. You get what you pay for. In my experience, the stock brakes on a BNR34 is horrible. Coming from an Evolution VII, it's like the brakes are struggling to stop the car, even in stock form. Comparing the stock Evolution VII brakes to the BNR34, the Brembo's are bigger on the Evo too. If you are driving a stock or moderately tuned BNR34, then MaybE.. a discs, pads, brake fluid and brake lines upgrade would be sufficient enough. Once you start hitting the 350whp and up mark, the stock brakes don't feel good enough.
