Just call Dave from Braketech. You would be looking at $460 shipped to you for front rotors and pads. That's genuine brembo rotors and fast road/occasional track day pad. Perfect for fun twisty roads. The front rotors should be 316x30 if it a legacy not outback
I have a lot to do with this. Massive misconceptions about more width means more grip. It's all wrong. If you double width of tyre you half the pounds per square inch of pressure. So equal grip. Only 2 things change that. A 1/2 width tyre will wear out twice a fast. So manufacturers usually use a softer compound on wider tyres to get more grip.
Obviously if you are spinning a wheel a wider tyre will overheat slower and offer more grip longer.
We run 225 wide semi slick tyres for drag racing on 350wkw. Traction only breaks off the line but we keep snapping front axles. Road duty traction is ok from 3rd gear up unless car upset. Remember bigger diameter tyres will usually have better corner grip but smaller diameter usually has more acceleration and braking grip as tyre can deform to the road imperfections.
I've done closed loop quite a bit. But as boon said shouldn't make huge difference if open loop tuned correctly. My % in closed loop is always within 2% which is pretty good. Some tuners just guess the low load and use closed loop to get ok fuel economy and have massive corrections

Race brakes did my shoes. Sent up some second hand ones I got from wrecker and they bonded more material on. Worked out perfect and still working well 50000km later
I've been doing the pad tests for Dave @ Braketech. Had the z, es and ec pads in my car. I'm super impressed with the dixcel. Also been testing bnt pads and Ferodo pads. Value for money I don't think you could beat the es or ec. Ec is for fast road with more initial cold bite, es is fast road and trackday pads. Slightly less bite cold but still much more than bendix etc.
Am I allowed to put my motor that is in another car? It's our rally car engine that since we have crashed have lent the engine to a mate to go to the drags with while we build our new car.
