Brakes, tell me something Options

[Trekkor]

Sure, this is a re-run.

I ran the track and got brake fade 3/4 of way into each session.

I just want to upgrade the pads and fluid right now.

What do you recommend/are using.
Wear is not a factor. I want the best stopping power for the stock FOUR calipers/rotors.

Do I need to replace the M/C with a bigger unit and what are your feelings on the prop valve vs "tee" arguement.

Also considering the SS brake lines.

Thanks and thanks to Mark for helping with the brake bleeding on track day.

QUOTE But, I've never had brake fade yet, so I think you need a good flushing and use ATE racing fluid. That would be a good start. Drew what brakes? Stock -6 brakes? Trekkor... you've got a -6 in there now right? With stock -4 brakes? Drew's right... ATE Blue and start over. Sounds to me like you may need different brakes and rotors.

I have A calipers in front with stock in the rear. I just pulled the rears off and am changing to 911 SC calipers and rotors. I will lose the hand brake but thats okay. I found that one of my rear calipers was missing the adjusting screw on one side. Don't know when or how that happened but it was probably contributing to my long pedal travel and slight modulation.
