WAZUP EVERYONE!!!
LAST WEEK I GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT.. SADLY MY LOVELY AND BEAUTIFUL CELICA SUFFER A BROKEN BUMPER, A HOOD THAT NOW LOOKS LIKE A TOSTADA, AIR BAGS POP AND A BROKEN WINDSHIELD.. NOW ALL OF THIS HAPPEN CUS SOME GUY SLAM HIS BRAKES AND WHEN I HIT MY BRAKES MY CAR SLIDE AND SWERVED ALL OVER THE PLACE.. I WAS WONDERING IF ANY ONE KNOW OF A VERY GOOD AFTER MARKET RACING BRAKE SYSTEM FOR MY 94 ST CELICA. MAYBE BIGGER CALIPERS,ROTORS AND PADS, AND WHAT CELICA HAS THE DISC BRAKES IN THE REAR THAT COULD FIT MY ST? |

a) stop using the freakin caps button, geeze
b) you don't need super cool big brake racingz kit yo! c) you need to learn how to drive. Every time a kid hits someone this is the first type of post i see, because of lack of knowledge. don't follow so closely and you should NEVER have this problem. Your DRIVING is the PROBLEM not your brakes. d) HAWK HPS/ Akebono are both quality pads that I recommend. Also Brembo blanks are a good quality rotor. Stainless Steel brake lines and routinely changing brake fluid will all help with maximizing your braking performance. e) you can only stop as well as your tires can hold traction f) you'll never stop well if you just slam the brakes and lock up your tires. Hope this helps and increase your following distance and pay attention to your driving. |
