Check out Aerospace Brakes or Wilwood. Those are the 2 best sources I know for drag strip brake kits.

Good luck!

When you start looking at "race parts", it gets tougher to use it as a street car. It sounds like it is about to be "decision time". How far will you go to go fast? Only you can answer that question.

I have the Strange drag brakes. Very light, and very appealing looks. The Strange drag brakes are about the lightest you can get. I drive them on the street on saturday nights but would not recommend them for daily driving as these are Race brakes and would warp very easy with repeated stop and go traffic.

The car isnt a driver must. i drive about 200 miles per week on the street, and race a couple times a month. Im going to look into some kits and see from there.
Thanks.
