Yes, thanks for the reminder. I know I will have to reclassify the car with the big brakes, but since the stock brakes were terrible, I accept that (and they are much better now). I haven't done a TT since I had them put on, so I didn't think it made a difference yet.chaos4NH wrote:If your car did not come from the factory with the Brembo Big Brake Kit, you will have to change that SSU classification. You would go to SPB if brakes are not stock on a turbo car. Just an FYI.L8ApexVR4 wrote:I think everyone who replied to the post mistakenly thought I wanted to replace the Brembo kit...no, I just want someone who knows more about them than me to make sure they are ok and reliable for next season.
I get a scraping/rubbing sound after each session, then when they cool off they are fine until they get warm again (track or street). I will replace pads this winter, but want to make sure all seals, rubber boots, lines, etc. are all in good shape, calipers release as they should, etc....and if not, be able to order/replace them easily.
So, I guess what I'm looking for is a recommendation of a "brake expert" who would be willing to take a look at them.
Thanks!

Re: Brake refreshing, not replacing
Thanks for the suggestions
Thanks for all the suggestions...keep them coming! I appreciate all the info/comments. I knew this would be a good place to ask.
BTW - I'm in Norfolk, MA (1/2 way between Boston & Providence)...but am not afraid to drive.

I highly recommend brake cooling ducts in SS. Just be sure to take them off or disconnect them for the TT.
Most hi performance performance cars can go 3 laps with upgraded pads and fluid only.
