Upgrade Questions I tried a couple of searches and didnt get much luck. I would like to upgrade my brake pads, break lines, and possibly get new rotors. I autocross 4-5 times a year, and my car is not daily driven. My Goal Improve brakeing distance and feel for a reasonable ammount of money.
Brake Pad Questions:
Ive been looking at the HPS+ pads, how do they compare to the new ceramic pads?
Brake Line Questions:
Which of the Stainless brake line kits support cars with traction control? The websites arent very clear on if they support them or not.

what I was told was OEM blank rotors would work just fine, Brembo Blanks cost more but are probably better, but get a set of great pads and some great fluid.

brembo blanks- best stock replacment, or convert over to corvette front rotors and calipers.
The lines- you should call the sponsors to the right and figure out what will work best for your application.
Pads- everyone seems to like the hawk pads, or the green stuff pads.
Flush out the fluid and put some good stuff back in. I would reccommend along the lines of a DOT4- as it has a higher boiling point, and if you are autocrossing you will need every little bit.
