BEST BRAKES + SUSPENSION

Post by autozam »

This summer, I'll hopefully be ordering some new BRAKE ROTORS/PADS + SUSPENSION...
I am curious which IS THE BETTER BRAND NAMES TO LOOK FOR AND BUY...

ROTORS= ??

BRAKE PADS= ??

SUSPENSION= ??

Does BREMBO make rear discs for the MX-3 yet?
I've heard the MAZDASPEED SUSPENSION is the way togo, Anything compareable?

eibach and tokico blues were great for yrs
now i have eibach and tockico black zx2 and seem like there is a little more bounce when i push with my hands on the car but the drive is still nice and stiff

green stuff break pads work great

What are you using the car for? Different setups work better for different driving styles.

Well if you aren't going to use it strictly for the track i wouldn't recommend slotted rotors, at least thats what i was told. They work better with the heat but don't have as much surface to break. To tell you the truth the best rotors/brake pad combo I've used were wagner thermo quiet pad and rotors. I used to love them on my crx. They are more oem but just use ceramic pads so you don't get all of that unnecessary brake dust.
