    Any input on if I wanted to get better brakes on my 97 berlinetta?

    Has anyone done it? Recommendations and related costs?

    Thanks

    The best things you can do for your brakes are to use more aggressive pads and lose some weight in the car. Stock is pretty awesome as is.

    Able to take all the braking one can do on any race track on street tires.

    Clean them up and paint them, that will give it a fresh look!
