T3's, PMU pads and braided lines is about as good as its going to get. Parachute maybe?The fg engine was a great buy at those km's and will max out the turbo he has safely. Whats the point of any more than 450ish with a btr? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By getting the braided lines, you reduce the distance the brake pedal has to travel when hitting the brakes.Don't skimp out on the brakes.Far out, I hope you get started soon and upload HEAPS of pics man!!!!!Watching anxiously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2 would be fine . I rather spend the extra and get the better once if they work better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
