BRAKE MODIFICATIONS.

In order to go fast, everyone knows that you need to stop, the Single piston VR brakes just weren't up to the task of slowing the VR down anymore. I gave Hoppers Stoppers a call and ordered one of their VR upgrade kits consisting of the following.

Hoppers Stoppers VT twin piston Calipers (Painted Gold)
Disc Brakes Australia (DBA) 330mm vented and slotted Gold series rotors.
Stainless Steel Braided Brake lines.

The car sits nice and flat now, a lot better than it was. The ride has been compromised a bit due to the stiffer suspension but its all worth it. Cornering is very good, very little body roll. I just need better buckets to hold me in place now.
