    Brakes, often the last thing people think of upgrading when it should be the first! I really love that brake manufacturers like O'Reilly are putting these nice looking, rust proof coatings on their rotors now - I fitted a set to the front of my GS460 last year, and it just lifted the look of the car that little bit not having rust visible through the wheels. I'm not sure if it's because of the channels I watch, but I really have seen much R35 wrenching content so this was great! When the seatbelt electronic pretensioners kick in, you know you've got some good breaks - for me it was moving to Pilot Sport 4's that got me into that zone - the seatbelt gives you a nice hug 🙂

    I hope your friend is doing a ton of track days! From what I've heard carbon-ceramic rotors need some heat in them before they have maximum stopping power and that steel rotors are the better option for street use. I think the main benefit of going carbon-ceramic is not fading from heat soak during track use.

    @The Questionable Garage / Jared, I was told by friends in japan with the R32 and r33 gtrs that they both are heavy cars that were very wide compared to similar cars. Is there something you specifically know about the r34 that is different? or is the r35 even quite heavy compared to those previous models? I wasn't under the assumption that any of the GTR's were particularly light compared to other sports cars like the EVO or Subaru STI
    Thanks for any info in advance.

      The first two generations of the GT-R, produced from 1969 to 1973, were a relatively light ~2500lbs. The third generation, the R32, was introduced in 1989 and had similar dimensions but was quite a bit heavier at ~3150lbs. The modern version is closer to 4000lbs.

    There's a couple things Jared missed. First is the cost to switch to carbon ceramics is pricey at first, but, they far out last steels so if you put on real miles or track time you recoup the investment quickly. Also, if you're concerned about cosmetics these have virtually zero brake dust. Lastly if you're taking 15+ pounds of unsprung weight out of each corner while improving braking then you *should* be less likely to crash the car.

I asked a few folks why and a Dodge mechanic told me it's because the pads and rotors are too small for the size of the vehicle. He basically said it was a design flaw from the factory. I was advised to try slotted rotors but, does anyone know of a better solution like, what Jared did here? Maybe a way to put bigger rotors and calipers with little to no modifications?
