Seeking recommendations re: upgrading brakes ?
I just got my SVX back after 3 years of storage and then approx. $2,500 of work ... new valve covers & other stuff around there, new MAF, new TCU from ECUtune along with Stage1AV1 ECU module, installation of a transmission cooler, new spark plugs, tranny fluid flush and other sundry work.
Damn .. it runs very very nicely indeed ! And .. it's been garage kept since I acquired it in 1996 with 48,000 kms on the odometer (now 177K = 110K miles). Seats in great condition, sun visors perky, even managed to clean up quite nicely the driver's side arm rest where the Escaine always gets greased up from dirt and human effluent. The SVX has lived in Vancouver since new, so there's nary a hint of rust anywhere on the body and the underside of the car is completely clean ... clean ! I've had the car and gone this far .. lots of patience required to believe in this car's potential to say yes to the time and $$'s I've spent so far. And since it's now (FINALLY!) driving like a solid and hot-ass little coupe with new shift maps, etc., I think its worth it to address the braking. So .. if I want to take the braking on this car up a notch or two ... Any suggestions ? |
