We brake with brakes ... - Toyota Celica, 1.8 L, 2003

Brakes ...
that's a big separate topic.
They were not enough, they overheated, etc. Normal brakes start at $ 2500. I would not like to spend so much, and there are still various buts. They offered me once in the states of a used rotor. 400 miles for $ 1000. Just a man was selling a car. And everything would be fine, and the price is simply fabulous, but ... I had 16 wheels, but for the Big Brake Kit you need at least 17. Okay, for the summer ... I still planned to take 18, but in winter I want to drive my 16s. Therefore, I had to get out of the situation by looking for discs and pads of standard sizes. We bought EBC brake discs and Green Stuff pads for them, although I ordered Red ... they were confused.

The problems are all gone!
No more overheating. On cold pads they slow down well, but after warming up they are excellent! Reds are sure better, but in civilian use I'm afraid that on cold they will be less effective.

yes, once the intersection flew to red, due to the fact that the brakes were overheated ... then immediately ordered a kit :)
