Hello everyone.

I want to upgrade the brakes on my 1999 Camaro Z28.
On Ebay I've seen complete sets from R1 Concepts.
Anyone have exeperience with them?

What are my options/what would you guys recommend?

Thanks!

Hey there! What exactly are you wanting to upgrade on your brakes?

I'm now running the stock rotors and brake pads.
I want to have better stopping power to begin with and a better feel to it.
Now I sometimes feel like not enough is happening when I hit the brakes.

I've come across many different kind if brakes (slotted, vented, dimpled) and want to have better stopping power than the standard brakes provide.

However, I dont feel too much like a conversion to Corvette brakes. Tha't because of the costs and because I'm not a really well tough mechanic. I'm on een steep learning curve :-)

Another wish is to use brake pads that have good durability and a small amount of brake dust.
