g20's with q45 4 piston calipers and huge upgraded mustang rotors and wilwood bbk.
Each one had a strong bite, i felt the bite was very strong in each case, but at the cost of brake modulation, anything harder than a super lite tap, would send the car stopping on a dime, which is not that good for heel toe. Let me know how the brake modulation is. Maybe we'll meet up one day.
i wil... i still need to brake it in once is done ill be good

I heard the R1 rotors are garbage. Should of gone with Racing Brake or StopTech rotors. They have black coating on the hub so they don't rust.

I've installed fast brakes, wilwoods on a g20, it was not fun. The instructions were garbage, and the brakes weren't all that responsive or resisted fade, but were still better than the factory g20 brakes.

wilwood superlite calipers suck and they go through pads really quick with normal use.
