Ok, so I've beefed up the engine (still on-going) sorted out the suspension all I need to do now is be able to scrub of all that extra speed.

I am looking for bolt on (no body or sus mods) up-grade to the brake system. The car is a 68 (not sure if that make a diff), the current brakes have been rebulit and work fine, but a liitle extra bite would be nice.

Any ideas

I have S Callipers and vented discs on the front (don't fit on the back), make reasonable difference.

Apart form that I have braided hoses (think you have those) and the Vic Elford book on how to drive Porsches properly! Seems to work for me! ;) touch wood!!

Have a look at Brands.

Updating to S calipers and discs wont add to the "bite" but SS lines, new fluid and a stronger left thigh might. The S parts will reduce fade, but no more
 
SS lines fitted, so fuild change and wider M cappliers to reduce fade seems like the cheapest option for limited track use.


Thanks for the info
