I NEED brakes, A short throw is just more goodies. I know my rears are about done, and im sure my fronts are just about the same because ive had this car at the drag strip numerous times, and had it at a road track as well. Im a spirited driver and id like to have the added safety of upgraded brakes, especially at the road tracks or strips.

Hey matt, dont know how you feel about this, but what about just going with some brembo blanks and some great pads with stainless lines. Should stop ten times better, and be about half the price of a stock cobra setup. I was going to go with the cobra brakes, but 2kgt said that for a daily driver, its not really that important, other than the bigger rotor helps with fade. Just some food for thought, this is how I went, and its about 200 bucks cheaper, plus its not stock ford pads, and you get stainless lines to boot.
