Been doing some research and debate myself. Come to the conclusion I would stick New Edge brakes in there. V6 and GT got the same brake package, and it's pretty robust, easy to find, and cheap. Remember it's designed for a 3000+ lb car and you're going to a 2400 lb car, so it's already overbraked, and being light it'll be easy on its consumables.
i have an 80zx with an sbc swap, i’ve rebuilt all 4 brakes, replaced a master, swapped coiled did bushings replaced u joints
The oldest I've used as a daily is my '55 Ford. Could stand to get some brakes on it, but otherwise it was fine.
I put brake pads on my father-in-laws Ford Taurus and put a sticker as such on the rear bumper.
In terms of driving impressions, well...it feels heavy and clumsy around town. The steering is very heavy...forget twirling the wheel with a finger. The shifter is mounted low and away. It takes effort to shift, and it's very solid and mechanical (rod shifter). The clutch is progressive but the friction point is not very obvious. Ride is quite good, and push through the clumsy feeling and she can dance. Brakes are hysterically soft, typical for a SHO.
Focus ST: Con -Using brakes to offset torque steer a bit lame. And contributes to crazy brake dust
The stock breaks on these cars were only just good enough when new, after years of wear and tear the breaks are awful. One slightly aggressive stop and that's it your breaks are done for the rest of the day.
I can't believe the brakes used here, this is after all the 'Sport' model out of the Taurus lineup so therefor it should have received a better braking setup.
