I'm glad you're happy with the new brakes. Had you tried some higher-temp pads with the original brakes? I'd bet some DS-2500s or even Pagid Sport Blues would have done the job.
Frequently going with bigger brakes increases lap times due to the extra weight. That is, assuming the correct pads are used in the regular brakes.
I've driven many cars similar to mine with Stoptechs and other aftermarket setups, and have yet to find one that stops as well and consistently as mine. Of course, the others use street pads and I use a very light race pad.
Your thoughts?
