What Brake Set-up?
Next step on my EJ7 is brakes...heres some background.
Engine:
B18C1 GSR Motor-Internally Stock
Peakboost Turbo Kit- 8 psi
S2 Pro Series IM & 68mm TB
Precision 1000cc Injectors
Hondata S300
3" Exhaust
Suspension:
S2 Pro Series Coilovers
All opinions are welcome i am trying to bring braking power up to par with the rest of the car, i am open to hear everything, a kit or piecing the system together.
Kit that i have been looking at http://www.jhpusa.com/catalog/...=1747, but i have heard good things about EBC Green Stuff Brake Pads, maybe throw them into the mix to piece something together.
Thanks.

New rotors, good pads, fluid.
If you don't have rear disks, get them.
If you don't have at least a 15/16" MC, Get one. A 1" mc can be bought at autozone. A wonderful upgrade.
You can put $900 brakes on your car, but you can't afford tires good enough for the brakes. Stock brakes with good fluid, a bigger mc, and good pads are more than enough for any casual/mild car tuner.
