Is there any way to upgrade the OEM Brembos? IS there a better caliper out there?
thanks

Sell your calipers cheap to me...then buy some monobloc calipers from a 1098...

Yea, the 2 pad monoblocks are better, not necessarily the ones on the 1098 either, but the ones in the kit from Brembo with the light weight rotors.

The 4 pad calipers arn't bad, but they are heavy and they don't dissipate heat in the same way. The 2 pad calipers work a bit better in that department, which helps on tracks where the brakes get a bit squishy.

The best "brake" related upgrade (besides pads) is the larger master cylinder.

What the hell are you guys talking about?

If you want the expensive stuff:
anyone upgraded to Brembo monoblock racing calipers?
