Mystique Blue Member 9 Member For: 12y 4m 15d Posted 29/02/16 06:47 AM Share Posted 29/02/16 06:47 AM Hi guys I have 2009 FG XR6T I have worked it a bit and currently have 300rwkw possibly will be upgrading a little more. But I have standard brakes atm except for front rotors which are DBAs but not bigger or anything. so its not surprising that I get brake fade and cook em fairly easily if I go do the twisties. Therefore, I just wanted to know how should I go about upgrading them? Wanna fit them to standard wheels for now...and not crossdrilled but slotted. What size and brands should I go with and if u know any good mechanics or places for the same. Please advise....Thanks ?

Mr goodcat New Member 8 Member For: 9y 8m 14d Gender: Male Posted 01/03/16 10:03 AM Share Posted 01/03/16 10:03 AM I had a chat to the boys at blue power about upgrading my brakes today. They strongly recommended the brembo 4 pot upgrade for the 300-350rwkw range and that race brakes in Sydney were the best place to get them. They also mentioned that the XYZ brake packages weren’t worth the cardboard they came in Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91757-brake-upgrade-fg-xr6t-worked/#findComment-1581180 Share on other sites More sharing options...
