| Brakes upgrade questions; 8-pistons in the rear?
I've been trying to figure something out, big brake kits come with a rediculous number of options. Theres the 4-piston, 6-piston, and 8-pistons for the front but the rears all stay at 4-piston. Whats the reason for this? Or, are there 8-piston rear dist brakes too?
Whats the best and for why, slotted or cross drilled?
Whats important when you upgrade your brakes, should you go all out and get the best or just something for now?
I know this will come down to what my car build will be and my intentions, so for the one I'm trying to build now is to be built for the track on the weekends. But, I also want to get some significant power out of my daily driver 325ci too which will also need all the upgrades. So I;d appreciate tips, input, and links to brake tips. But, I have tried to get some info and found quite about this but not so much about the reasons that rear brakes dont have 8-pistons. Although really minor I'mstill curious. |
