I've got a quick question regarding Type S calipers and rotors onto my 04 EP3. I know what is involved in terms of parts, but i'm curious about the performance gain.
The question is for those of you that have this setup and run track days with it:
(street use opinion is useless for me as this is a dedicated track car)
Did the increase in rotor size (from 10.4" to 11.8") yield a significant increase in braking performance (I.e. Fade resistance) ?
Short of a big brake kit, this could be a worthy (and much cheaper!) alternative to a big brake kit.
Long story, short I have quite a bit of brake fade on short technical tracks and I'd like to improve it.
feedback is welcomed.
