brake kit Q..
brake kit Q..
I have decided to keep the IROC and I have been lurking in the shadows of TGO reading...so I have decided that brakes and suspension will come first. My Q is with 350hp in mind, would a wilwood front brake kit be good enough stopping power for the occasional weekend romp through the curvies, while retaining the rear drums....or is that too unbalanced?

There are other options. Many members have done the 1LE, LS1 or even the C4/C5 upgrade. Check pricing with Ed Miller (ebmiller88), who's developed and sells many of these kits.

Re: brake kit Q..
Brake choice will also depend on what size wheel you are running. There's a lot of choices for your car so LMK if you need any advice.
