For brakes, I went with Willwood 4 piston calipers with 10.1in rotors and a disk conversion in the rear. So, now I can stop, and have a lil less scary ride.

Pros: less scary ride

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Uneven wear:

I run these calipers and track my s13. They are great. I heard from other racing guys that the 4 pots make the pads wear in diagonal; they switched to the 6 pots ans it solved the issue. They run slick tyres, i only use UHP. I use DTC60 from hawk. I have custom made brackets and hats, with 315 x 32mm rotors.

Pros: great performance, solved wear issue

Cons: pads wear diagonally (4-pot)

Vehicle: Nissan

I put willwoods on my track/autox supercharged NB. They are great, the extra grab, and need to use less pressure is great. I highly suggest the upgrade.

Pros: great grab, less pressure

Vehicle: Mazda

I've got them on my SLC as well. They are amazing. I have stainless hoses and drilled/slotted rotors all around. Went from stock brakes with mintex red box pads, to Girling 60's with hawk hps pads, and put Wilwoods on it last year and the wilwood's just blow the others out of the water. AND they fit under the stock wheels.

Pros: amazing, fit stock wheels

Dust:

I don't know much about Stop-Tech, however, I have heard from a friend that used Wilwood that these perform best in non-Winter driving conditions. He said that over time they will not stand up as well as a Brembo set up. It might be worth noting what climate (Alaska vs California) that you spend most of your driving time in as well when factoring a BBK upgrade. I also noticed that you are quite new to this group so allow me to introduce you to the member who will derail all original posts into something else to the point where your thread may get locked up. See below. GoGo Golf R said: Ok let's try to agree on the following: 1) Upgrading the brakes is mostly justified for track driving purposes No, Personal preference. 2) Changing the brake pads will reduce dust for street driving Depends on your pad choice 3) Changing the brake pads, rotors and brake lines is pricy Subjective 4) The OEM brakes, while not totally ideal for every driving style, will suffice for average street drivers and some track drivers Depends on your driving style 5) Downshifting with correct rev-matching, will extend the duration and reduce wear on the brakes Yes because replacing your clutch is much cheaper than new pads :screwy:

Pros: perform best in non-winter

Cons: don't stand up as well over time
