    I need better braking. Could I, theoretically, purchase front calipers and the bigger carbon fibre rotors off a CS and improve the front braking?
    I think the back brakes are fine. I've heard only the 19" wheels will fit. I know the cost is substantial, but is it a bolt on application?

    Forward your inquiry to member 360trev who has completed this modification. Purchasing over the counter at your Ferrari dealer is ludicrous. You may also want to contact the OEM supplier, Brembo to see what they offer aftermarket.

    If I remember right the guy was asking 12K? I think it's a great idea if you can get the parts at a REASONABLE cost, Scott

    get pictures of the back brakes to see if the bracket is the same size.

    I've never seen the back of a "banana" brake so I can't be of any help

    I know someone who upgraded his front brakes for about 5K on his 360 using Brembo. He has also CS and he says that the brakes are now identical in terms of efficiency.

    Contact Tony Takla at TT competizione... hey can improve breaking and reduce costs of putting on and maintaining CS brakes. I love my CS brakes, but there are cheaper ways to get good braking... and when I say cheaper, its long term TCO.

    Its a nice upgrade but you have to consider that you going to unbalance the brake distribution. A set of Brembo GranTurismo 14' or 15' rotors and calipers or also Stop Tech system will do nicely and at a very reasonable price. I have installed both in F-cras with great results.
