[QUOTE="csl, post: 1064161369, member: 16966"] I just paid the 1st road tax + insurance for it so I don't think wear and tare is something that can be happen. The biggest problem is the weight of the car. Suspension and thick tires are the 2nd contribution of poor braking. The stock brake is good for max 100-120km/h. Anything more than that you will feel some sort like R35 braking at 240-260km/h (on stock brake system). Brake pad is the only thing that I can try at the moment but I don't put big hope for satisfaction. Bigger wheel with thinner tires + a set of BBK will be the solution but the cost just too much. If I put my spare 18" lightweight wheel on it, tires alone will be at about RM3k, BBk is about RM6k (including everything), Currently the tires are good. If tires are bad, the brake can easily jam the wheel and leave tire marks on the road. I used to think of making grooves on the stock brake rotor but the risk is just not worth a single penny so I give up. [/QUOTE]
