1988 Carrera, with a Big Red Kit from Race Technologies circa 2004 with a price tag of about $5700
Race Technologies I have attached the invoice because when I tried to figure out exactly what I had it never came up as the part number is no longer any good. I think its a kit that is no longer available. The rotors are cross drilled which seems really blingy to me,so I don't get that part either.
The P.O installed these about 10 years and 30K miles before selling me the car.
I have never driven a Carrera with stock brakes hard,so I don't have a baseline to compare to. For a few different reasons I have on more than one occasion considered removing the kit and re installing the stock brakes(came with car)
If you look at the invoice attached it looks as though a 23.81mm 930 Master has also been installed.
I am looking for some advice on dealing with front wheel lock up that has me nervous about pushing the car. I have always driven a heavy sedan, and like the feel of lots of rear brake so it may just be me adjusting to a rear engine car. Either way,I want more rear brake and less lock.
Tires on the car admittedly are not the best,so i think I could hide some of the problem with new rubber, however I believe that the car should have a more neutral or rear biased brake feel than it currently does.
How can I get there?? OK, I couldn't upload the invoice so here are the Part #'s 1B16001R2 BREMBO BIG RED GTP2 FRONT KIT 2C16002R2 BREMBO BIG RED GTP2 REAR KIT 93035501103 MASTER CYLINDER
