</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>QUOTE ( @ Dec 28 2000, 05:25 PM)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'> Brembo only does front brake kits. We are working on a rear upgrade kit to go with the Brembo front.

The car used by Car & Driver may have had a problem, but we don't feel it is a design problem. Our testing indicates that it's more of a brake balance problem, which is why we're developing a rear kit. [/QUOTE]
did anything ever come about for a rear brake kit to go with the front brembos?

Check out comptech usa. They offer a brembo kit that includes rear rotors. No kits on the market offer an upgraded rear caliper. Atleast not one that works with the e-brake.

i know what a dead thread is... but i'm also asking why no one asks this stuff anymore. no one has really answered the demand for these products that i feel are pretty basic for a sports car like the s.

Dead yes, but at least he did it the right way.. he searched for a topic, found a thread, and needed more info.. so instead of creating another worthless thread he piggybacked off this old one.

I guess there really isn't much demand then. Heck, from what I gather, even the California guys who do lots of Honda Challenge racing aren't too concerned with the rear rotors.

There's certainly zero interest from the A Stock drivers doing SCCA.
And the same for street-only cars.
