    I think they recommended the perfect brake kit for you and your car because regular slotted rotors is good however J slotted rotors is better because the slotting is more aggressive giving a better pedal feel and has better performance. A must have with high performance brakes is good quality grippy wheels and quality performance brake pads.

    Did you pre pump the brakes before bleeding to get some fluid into them and the pistons to touch the disc, or just crack on with the bleeding? Love your videos

      @@TommyLGarage Track time is wonderful) I know one inexpensive trick for track riding, some friends of mine change lower arms on their Carreras for arms from GT3. GT-arms has metal hinge and car will go more precisely, and you can make more agressive camber angles. Ride comfort for street using still good, and the metal ball in the arms is neatly covered with rubber from the factory, and unlike a pure racing one, it will not creak during the rain, and will ride for as long as usual

    grease anywhere near the break assembly is a total no no. it tends to liquify as the heat increases and runs on the friction material. the used greases are usually heat resistant so burning them of the rotor is not that easy. on top of this the grease acts as a thermal paste, conducting heat from the pad to the calliper's pistons.
