Re: brake upgrades for coupes

You may be restricted by the 15" wheels when it comes to a lot of kits... I went with a big 6 piston caliper front & mini 6 piston rear caliper kit from RRS... But I needed to go 17" wheels to be able to fit over them..
Remember that a lot of big brake kits need 18" of vacuum to work well, just fitting big brakes to a car with poor vacuum or a smaller diameter booster won't give the results you're after...
I'm about to fit a big brake kit (14" rotors, 6 piston callipers) to my Challenger but the lumpy cam is useless for vacuum so I'm fitting a Hella UP30 vacuum pump to compensate for the cam, also if your master is for a disk/drum setup you probably should swap it for a 4 wheel disk one & for best performance a balance/bias adjuster is a good idea
