    Thanks for sharing, I was planning to upgrade to wilwood but after knowing the break-in period I'm going to stay with stock.

      Thought the same. What pads are you using? Have you been to the track with your car? Thanks!

    Nice comparo, I can confirm this mod is a fun one. I was not expecting to get a new feeling of crispness in the front that these lighter assemblies facilitate. I'm running the slightly smaller Powerlight of the FM kit. No problem handling a 20minute track session. BP-20's is a bit dusty and I'm not having trouble with initial braking.

    what brake fluid are you using? my brakes just came in and looking over it say to use dot 3 performance never heard of it before read it that. Just wondering did you use the regular dot 3 or did you flush the system and change the fluid?

    What are the 2 gauges you have on both sides of the cluster?

      One is for oil temp, and the other is for boost pressure. Personal preference and gives me more info on the car.

    Hey man should I buy the club or grand touring? I might throw a turbo in there eventually. I know I’ll have to replace the transmission, just wanted to hear from you which version you recommend

      I would recommend the Club edition. I got the GT and had to beef it up to the level of the Club. But, you do get blind spot monitoring and standard heated leather seats on the GT.

    Did you upgrade the brake lines? Did you need to upgrade master cylinder?

    • @Vitalewastaken

      Upgraded to stainless steel brake lines on the front, a must-buy when upgrading brakes. No master cylinder upgrade.

      Thanks for the video. I’ll be purchasing this kit soon. Thinking I’ll run BP-10 pads for daily use and swap to the BP-20’s for the track.

    How did you lower your Miata? Coilovers?

    • @Vitalewastaken
      @Vitalewastaken  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I use Swift springs and Koni shocks which lower the car just a bit.
