KM sell insight ?
i'm not too sure if its the same as hchii
i got mine quite dirt cheap but its 400C at performance grade

next you might wanna consider the Stainless Steel Brake Hose
it will increase your brakin distance tremendously

still not enough? change your tires

btw your low resistance tires are designed to work that way
lousy braking but good fuel economy
i changed mine two day upon collection as it scare me to hell

so what you wan?
brake or petrol?

pm me if you wanna the prices as i might get some angry if post

brakeline brake pads are good enuff. if yr tyre skids, change it. I cant think of a reason to compromise safety.

Its should not be more than $100 to change your brake discs and calipers.

2nd grade pads abt $60.

Btw, anyone got recommendation where to drill or slot stock rotors? and price?

Thank you
