And those people will probably include just about anyone that has ever raced a 140. I cannot imagine any circumstance under which a street driven 140 would actually benefit from a brake upgrade. (Well, okay... ABS might be nice!) With nothing more than a change to high performance pads and fluid, the bone stock brakes on my ITB 142 do lap after racing lap with no fade, nor any other performance issues whatsoever. And keep in mind, this is on tires with tread compounds that provide far more grip than you'll ever achieve on street rubber. -- Gary L - 1971 142E ITB racer, 73 1800ES, 02 S60 T5 Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.
