e30 Big brakes or 5 stud.

Recommended Posts

Just getting a good rotor and not a sh*t pad compound for the test is key, wouldnt recommend doing it with a new race compound as they need some proper heat cycles at the track first to bed in. You can ruine a pad by doing a test like this without properly cycling it. I've done it and it sucks wasting $450 on a set of pads cause you were being too careless about it.

You lads with the big (350-400rwhp) power under the hood will be needing the real big brakes.

Power would make this test easier. The faster you can get to 100 the more time you have to stop.

As with most problems in life, more power is the answer here! :)

If the brakes are a sensible size for the mass of the car they will pass the test, decent tyres and abs help.
