Installed the C5 (13") front brake upgrade on Kira and oh-boy is it an improvement!
To give you an idea of how big of an improvement is simple. I was running ZR1 wheels with 285 kuhmo excsta's, (no clue how to spell it) treadwear is 180 so basically a sticky tire. With this wheel setup the stock brakes couldn't lock up the fronts at all. Now with about 60% peddle effort they lock up.
Now if your saying wow 60% peddle effort to-lock is bad, then Congratulations your not an idiot! I knew it wasn't good but I figured like an F1 pro I'll manage it fine. Sooooooo, three weeks later I flat spotted the fack* out of them in one quick stop on the highway. Blah blah blah this post is to long so the rest in bullets
-put rear tires on the front. 295's
-did a burnout with the fronts on the back. improved the condition of the tires a bit
-bought a new brake bias spring that applies more pressure to the rear
-will install over winter and report
-vette is put away for winter. = Winter projects begin and cooler updates
