AKEBONO SPORT BRAKE UPGRADE!! MASSIVE DIFFERENCE

Описание: You guys know me enough by now that I’m always up for upgrading my cars to make them perform better than stock. When production cars leave the factory, they are built with value in mind, being a balance of both performance and a budget, to be profitable. That means there is lots left on the table, and this is just another one of those examples.

In this video, I will be further upgrading the braking system on my Touring Sport 370Z. I recently upgraded the brake lines and master cylinder brace to eliminate the brake pedal deflection, I installed some extended studs and spacers as I changed over my wheels from a street to track setup, and now the brakes themselves are getting a healthy upgrade! Better bite, less weight, improved cooling, and superior pedal feel as well.

After the brakes are swapped on your car, you should follow it up with a flush, where you take all of the old fluid out and replace it with fresh fluid. I am draining the DOT3 fluid, so I can bleed the system with high temp DOT4 fluid. To see how I do that in addition to change all the other fluids, click the link below to the next video.
