Brake Upgrades
Discussion
Looking to upgrade the brakes on my 924 S as they seem to run out of braking on track, quickly getting juddery, as demonstrated at around 3:00 > http://youtu.be/2l1oMsVUzVM
Running standard callipers, disks, EBC Red Stuff pads and the ATE racing blue fluid.
I think I need more racy pads, braided hoses and some ventilation. In the moments before it all goes a little spongy / juddery I think the brakes should be up to the job, so not thinking I need anything too drastic.
I have checked through the Front Engined Porsches forum but cannot see this has been covered before!
Thanks

mrdemon, thanks but I don't think they come in my sizes... Pagids could be the way forwards though.
thegoose, I will check those all out, see which racy ones fit.
LarJammer, I was so tempted by those on TIPEC but sods law had other plans... other 924 S suffered a seized calliper (replaced) and other car a shock leaking all with 24hours of asking. If I had your engine I'd probably be more resourceful / less sensible, but with my 160bhp they're probably overkill... for now.
aceparts, as awesome as that would be, as above, a bit much for my current setup. Not even sure they'd fit! Certainly require new wheels.
blade7, as above, fill your boots!
