EBC Brakes
As we mentioned, the stock brakes needed attention and an EBC pad and rotor change has worked for us in the past. The swap is very straightforward and you'll find an outline here and online.

After fitting, the standard-sized brakes do feel a little more positive, particularly from high speed. However, it doesn't appear to be quite as radical as we'd hoped (we're not having much luck at present, such is the modifying process...) so we'll probably investigate new lines and fluid to see if that gives us a stiffer pedal.

MANUFACTURER PART PRICE
Techtonics Tuning cat-back exhaust $680
Euro Sport Accessories cold-air intake $179.95
EBC rotors and pads $527.90
