BBK's are a total waste of money
Now we're arguing again, eh? I'm just kidding lolol..just bored. I want BBKs, but I technically don't need them just yet. For now, pads, fluid, and lines are plenty good enough |

Stock M brakes are pretty good. I get some brake fade after running canyons for a few hours. It's probably time for me to upgrade.

Ultimately, the biggest determining factor of how well your brake system will work, be it a BBK or a sliding caliper on one piece rotor, is entirely dependent on the grip your tires provide, and the system's capability to dissipate heat. It's as simple as that. How the engineers compromise each component to achieve the best performance, is the voodoo science we all pay the engineers so much for.

With all that information I ordered my BBK yesterday. I went for a 4 pistons StopTech kit with 332mm slotted rotors for the front. I'm also changing the rear pads to StopTech to have matching compound (not sure if that really matters but a couple of people told me so) and changing the rear rotors to slotted R1 Concept and switching to ATE brake fluid.
