I have dynalite 4 pistons on the car now - I see on wilwoods site though that they only recommend the superlite 4 for road racing. Are these good enough? I am also running the non veined rotors on the rear - should I be running veined rotors or will I not really notice any difference from going to a superlite 4 with venied 2 piece rotors from the setup I have right now?

I run superlite 6r with gt 2 piece rotors on the front. i have 245 in the front and 295 in the rear tires.

thoughts? worth the money or a waste? it would be about 1500 to upgrade. I could always look for some used ap racing or something similar.

Are you road racing or autocrossing. You really dont need big brakes for autocrossing. My drums work great on the back of the falcon and I dont need to worry about pad knock back.

Are you noticing brake fade?

The Dynalites use a really small pad, smaller than even alot of stock calipers. I think if you pushed a Dynalite system hard on the road race track you would see fade. For drag or street probably no big deal.
