    I want manual brakes right now WTB

    So I´m going to run manuls on my S50 car,
    Stock sized calipers and rotors.

    What master/s to get and from where?

    why in the world do you want manual brakes?

    That's like a whole new level of FUH RAZE.

                datsuns are not a good defense for manual brakes.

                doing a track day in my 240, which has better brakes than a 510, (and power), I almost went through the windshield when I got back in my e30

                i don't know if it would just affect pedal feel or what, but it sounds crazy to me

                    nothing wrong with manual brakes, i could lock brakes with my m3 setup and no servo assistance, but found it easier to control the braking and avoid lock up

                            Race cars. Why on earth would you want brakes like that on a street car? I would think that you wouldnt wanna be TOO fuhraze every day on the way to the grocery store.

                              Nothing wrong with properly setup manual brakes. Most people find them much easier to modulate than power brakes.
