Brake upgrades

Recommended Posts

Morning,

 

I have been searching through the threads about brakes but I was wondering if there was any definative advice.

 

I do two or three trackdays a year and since going to the 'Ring last year fully intend on going again this year.

 

However, my steed has changed and I now own a shiny Zed.

 

Can I just upgrade pads and fluid to cope with the Zed's weight or do they need a full big brake upgrade.

 

I am hoping that I can be pointed toward some decent pads as I don't think I do enough trackdays to warrant the expense of a big brake conversion but I would welcome thoughts from any who have tracked their Zed's.

 

My main concern is being half way round the ring and running out of brakes as its a long way to nurse a car round.

Motul RBF600 fluid (no risk of it boiling), stainless steel brake lines, pads. (DS2500, Redstuff, Endless, Project Mu are all good stuff)

 

Then if you want to do a little overkill, 2 piece disks.

 

IMO the 4 pots Brembo calipers are plenty good for a few track days in a year.
