incredible, and true. Hong Kong has so many 250kmh-0kmh stops these will come in handy all the time.

Or just get better brake pads?

AP racing brakes are high quality. But why do you want a BBK? Do you race or track the car?

The other thing you have to make sure is that the brakes are properly sized to work with the ABS, DSC, and brake force distribution. Get it wrong, and the car may take longer to stop than with stock brakes.
