[QUOTE="eyong, post: 1357222, member: 23540"] Nicole, were u using uprated pads or something (like metallic-based pads) before? If you are just on standard pads, maybe have your discs check for warpage (if you are the aggresive, late breaker like me). Also, if your brake is spongy, you may need to bleed for new oil. How long have you had your car for now? Don't know if you need things like Brembo's etc (very costly on pads alone and they don't last long either). If you go for works brakes, means you need works disc as well. Unless if you could source for some good pad (endless, or AP-Lockheed), coupled with say Castrol SRF, or AP-Lockheed 600 brake fluid should be enuff for your use. It all boils down to what you want to use your car for. A well set-up suspension gonna help alittle with the braking as well. If you go for coil-over, the ride's gonna be rough for sure. Don't know if there are any good good suspension tuners in MY, but I used to work for Bilstein motorsport in Oz. Just make sure you have good aftersales support when you get coil-overs struts. I am currently using Hot-Bits, they are ok ... maybe not tuned to what I would expect though. Then again, I expect alot from a suspension from where I were before. [/QUOTE]
