Thats your opinion, been running 12.3 in crossdrilled rotors for along time now, no problems , this is how the setup will look on the Tc

im not saying it doesnt look good because it actually looks GREAT

but many people who end up gettin brembo's tink they can brake a lot and a lot harder.

this in excess usualy causes cracks,
(me and my buddys push our cars a lot, especialy on the mtn, thats why brembo hasnt been good to us)

Harder braking tends to happen once you slap some of these on...

I have a set of the Black brembos from an 88 Porsche 944 Turbo S. Please let me know who makes a mounting block and what kind of rotor your going to use. I don't need crossdrilled or slotted but I'd like the "hand of god" stopping power of the Brembos.
