Hi
I own a 94' mx3 w/bp turbo.....
I have done most basic mods...springs, struts, vented disks, good pads but I definately need more than that to slow me down.....they have too much fade!!!!!!!!!!
I am looking for a brake upgrade that could be cheaply done.....or relatively cheaply since i have no money for expensive big brake kits....i was wondering if it would be possible to pick up lets say millenia calipers and swap them on.....
what are my options....????
and for the rear...is the drum -> to disk conversion relatively simple has anyone done it????
thanks

Re: brake upgrade for a 4cyl???
the rear to disk is a bolt on as long as you got everything, i got the whole rearend from a GS for mine, you would also need a new master cyl for the swap, but its all bolt on, to bad the hurricane killed my RS before i could do it

Re: brake upgrade for a 4cyl???
you dont need the ENTIRE rear end outta a GS for the rear disc brake swap. Just the spindles, brake hoses, and Ebrake cable. U can keep the old master cylinder..it will work....but not to the full potential.
