Like most drivers, you like to go fast and mash on the brakes to stop for those turns. Sometimes the pedal feels sloppy and soft. Sometimes you just dont stop fast enough. An easy solution to that is by upgrading the brake fluid and brake lines. Vivid Racing uses dot 4 Motul Synthetic brake fluid to hold up to the temperatures of aggressive braking. The brake fluid has a much higher boiling point then the stock fluid and is a great solution for street or track use. Combining new brake fluid with steel braided brake lines optimizes the stock braking experience. Factory rubber brake lines flex under pressure causing the brake pedal to feel soft or "mushy" Steel braided brake lines give a firm pedal response and allow for much harder braking conditions to be controlled.
The Agency Power brake lines use CNC machined fittings for a perfect fit to the stock caliper and have a smoke covering to protect the steel braided part from wearing.
So at a total cost of around $140 in parts, you can improve your braking greatly over stock. There is always new pads or big brake kits, but for the dollar, this is a good mod. That is my recommendation for the day!
