Default Brakes

Jason,

Thats the thing with these cars and they need good rear brakes, also the more calipers on the rotor the less air around it for cooling. With the handbrake I can get dispensation for a hydraulic handbrake while I own the car, which maybe a way around it!

The Dynalites with 1" bores seem to be popular with a lot of race guys here for the rears. I have also seen very good Jap hi-performance 2 pot calipers grafted into setups, and as mentioned one piece ventilated rotors 11" & 12" available in different offsets here for $60-$80, we have guys here that have built some of the fastest race cars in NZ with a very simple rear common setup, but I as you mentioned there is potential for uneven pad wear with less than 2 pot calipers.
