check out www.k2rd, they have two kits, a little one and a big one. The little one is still way better than stock tho, and stock ain't bad

So far the only thing I've been planning on doing is getting SS lines, for better pedal feel, and some better pads (suggestions?).

The stock brakes are pretty potent, and they are nicely balanced too.

Last weekend I upgraded the brakes on my '89 T2. Mazdamotorsports.com had DOT SS brake lines for a bit over $60. EBC Green Stuff all around. For the rotors I went to alamomotorsports and got the KVR Performance slotted rotors. They were pretty cheap too. When I got the box it turned out that it looks like Brembo made them. Sweet! I figure the T2 stock setup is very good, but with good pads it can be great. Well, this setup is very nice. I seems to be just right. I'll know it better when I can really use though. The weather out here is not conducive for braking too hard (rain, rain, rain) to I can't really test it out too well. But so far I like it a lot better than before. Hopefully on 2/10 I'll have fun with them. Slush Series partII autoX!!!

It's a good deal.
Tonight the roads were dry. This brake setup rocks!
