			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those who wish to improve the braking system for facing the fastest tracks, here is a collection of some of the best choices from the car component manufactures.</p>
<p><strong>Rotora Big Brake Kits</strong></p>
<p><img alt="rotora big brake kits Big Brake Kits" id="image235" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/rotora-big-brake-kits.jpg" title="Big Brake Kits" /></p>
<p>Among the powerful players in the manufacturing of brake kits, Rotora keeps its promise to its enthusiastic car owners with a big brake upgrade kit. This is a 4-piston caliper brake kit, fully cast and CNC machined. The user can achieve a better pedal comfort due to its high clamping force and the stock brake balance. Rotora brake kit contains two 1 piece cross-drilled and slotted vented e-coated black rotors, in two sizes, 330mm and 295mm, according to the application; two 2-piece cast aluminum 4-piston calipers, available in two colors- red and blue; two anodized black caliper mounting brackets; Rotora street performance pads and DOT approved Stainless Steel braided brake lines.</p>
<p><span id="more-225"></span>Rotora brake kits are available for Acura, Audi, BMW, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Eagle, Ford, GMC, Honda, Hummer, Hyundai, Infiniti, Isuzu, Jaguar, Jeep, and Land Rover.</p>

<p>The Brembo Gran Turismo High Performance Braking System offers an advantage over other brake kits. It consists of four or eight piston cast aluminum calipers and thus provides maximum braking force. The sophisticated &#8220;Floating&#8221; Disc Mounting System reduces the &#8220;unsprung weightâ€ and minimizes the heat-related stress and thus allows the heat to be dissipated in an efficient manner. The direct venting allows better cooling of the system. Also the drilled or slotted surface ensures better cleaning of the pad surface.</p>
<p>The kit consists of high performance brake pads and aircraft quality hardware. The DOT and TÃœV- approved Goodridge stainless steel braided brake lines leave no questions about the quality of Brembo GT brake kits.</p>
<p>Bremoboâ€™s most sport disc applications are approved by ABE. This is a TÃœV certification based on a standard approval system adopted by the Federal Ministry of Transportation in Germany. Brembo has obtained this certification mainly because of its integrity in producing quality products with a wholly owned production process that is implemented worldwide.</p>
<p>The famous brands of cars which can adopt Brembo GT brake kits are Acura, Audi, BMW, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Detomaso, Dodge, Ferrari, Ford, GMC, Honda, Hyundai, Infiniti, Jeep, Lamborghini, Lexus, Lincoln, Mazda, Mercedes, Mini, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Pontiac, Porsche, Subaru, Toyota and Volkswagen.</p>

<p>The <strong>brake system</strong> in a car works in a complex manner. The mild force we apply on the brake is not sufficient enough to stop a heavy car or any automobile. In reality, the force, which we apply on the brakes, gets multiplied and is transmitted to the tires and from there to the road. This multiplication of the force takes place by two processes, viz., the mechanical leverage and the hydraulic force.</p>
