To add, upgrading each part of the brake system does the following: -Stiffer caliper gives pedal firmness and evenness of pad wear from track use (see pad taper). -Larger caliper allows it to be stiffer for cheaper, and allows larger pads to be run for endurance races. Also helps against boiling fluid but rotor should come first. Downside is larger caliper requires a larger wheel to fit - and larger diameter wheels are slower than smaller wheels. -More rotor mass reduces average temperatures around the track to keep pads cooler and within their operating temp range -Larger rotor diameter gives you more braking torque, useful for ability to threshold brake with sticky tire at high speed -Curved rotor vanes cool better than straight vanes due to their fundamental air pumping design -Harder/treated rotors last longer -More aggressive pad gives you more bite and greater temperature window. Downside is more aggressive pads make more noise and dust, need higher temperatures to work their best, and wear rotors much faster if you don’t have a transfer-layer type pad. -Fluid is pretty easy, but often misunderstood. With the car off, pump the brakes until it's as hard as can be. Then try pushing again and see how squishy it is. If it's really squishy then flush the brakes and try again. You're not going to make a stock car rock hard, so just calibrate yourself to how squishy the system is after a flush and remember that next time you think you boiled fluid. Way too often people think they boiled fluid when they actually just faded or melted a % of their pads. At a track day my brake pedal always feels like trash when I go out for lunch. That's just how the pads get after intense heat cycles - doesn't mean the fluid boiled. As you warm them back up after an intense session, they'll feel better. It's harder to boil fluid than you think. Regardless, just flush with dot 4, RBF600 or SRF if you're a baller and don't worry about it. If you're using a super aggressive track pad and STILL boil racing fluid - you absolutely need a big brake it. For street use, the biggest difference is the pad by far. None of the other parts come close to just swapping on a set of transfer-layer ceramic pads like those from carbotech or g-loc, and bedding them in correctly: by doing repeated stops until you notice significant reduction in braking power. If you stop before that, they are not bedded in properly. For a quiet pad you can use at all temperatures, get a G-loc GS-1 or a Carbotech 1521. These offer better bite than OEM pads and are super easy on rotors. For MUCH better braking performance at the cost of dust and some noise, get a G-loc R8. Not for winter use. Easy on rotors, dust is non-corrosive and torque is easy to modulate. Just doing the fronts is fine. If you track your car do both front and rear in a more aggressive compound like the R12. For front heavy cars step down for the rear. So that's R12 front and R10 rear, etc. DM me if you plan on going to the track and i'll give you better info for your specific needs. Another perfectly viable pad is Ferodo DS2500 for street/very light track use or Ferodo DS1.11 for heavy track work. The key here is research. For track use, the most important part aside from pad is the rotor. When brakes overheat, we’re talking about the pad operating over its intended operating temp range and decreasing its bite, or the fluid boiling. Both issues are solved with a larger rotor. Rotors with double the thermal mass cut temperatures in half for a given braking event. Very important. The larger diameter combined with curved vanes promotes a huge amount of air being pumped through the rotor to cool them back down before the next corner. If you just drive on the street, get a better pad. If your braking power fades throughout a track session or heavy canyon rip, also get a larger rotor. If your pads are wearing way more on the leading edge after track days, get a stiffer caliper with more pistons. Stainless brake lines only really make the pedal slightly stiffer and slightly easier to modulate, but don’t make your brakes work any better. A proper caliper and progressive track pad makes a much, much bigger modulation difference. And the biggest con of all is ‘performance rotors’. If they’re the same thickness and diameter as your current rotors, they are NOT an upgrade. Just because they look fancy doesn’t mean they do anything different. In many cases a 2-piece will be a downgrade because you lose thermal mass, and the weight savings is only a very small difference. Your money is better spent on better tires, pads and larger rotors if it applies to you. Past that, your time is better spent using a pyrometer to determine what your tire pressures and alignment should be to maximize grip. Another note: There’s no need to change brake fluid every year. Follow the manufacture’s recommendation in the manual- which is typically every 3 years. Even then, it’s not really ‘dangerous’ to leave it in longer than that. Your pedal will just get squishier and the fluid will boil/freeze at a closer-to-ambient temperatures, but for a lot of people out there, it’s not a huge problem.

When bleeding the brakes, tie the bleed line to a high point, like the top coil of the springs. This will make bleeding the air way more efficient since the air will always want to make it's way to the summit of the arc faster than the fluid will. Air is lighter than hydraulic fluid.

[@boblast5582]

sorry, I'm a brake nerd. corrections: ceramic pads are not "the best", they're for street duty when you don't wanna deal with dust, and most of them have horrible friction properties and require higher effort on the brake pedal. if you can deal with dust most organic pads make for a better braking experience for a street pad. metallic pads are for the track, the main downside about using them daily isn't no friction at cold (every track/race pad I've driven has a much higher bite at cold, even freezing temps than normal street pads), the downside is they will chew through your rotors at cold/street temps. I've made this mistake and wore out the rotors faster than the pads, by a big margin (daily got totalled so I ended up dailying a car that was supposed to be 90/10 for track/street and it was too cold outside to change the pads). A lot of modern track pads aren't even loud anymore when you get them properly bedded in. But they can become really loud when mixing compounds like switching off between track and street pads. drilled rotors were never for cooling. they're drilled for pad degassing back when race brake pads released gas when they got hot. and since race cars had them that makes them look cool. so people started putting them on their street cars. These days pad degassing isn't a thing. if you want the look go for it. if you plan to track, get slotted rotors to prolong rotor life. Another important factor not mentioned is rotor thickness. rotor thickness and vane design has the biggest impact on rotor cooling. The thicker the rotor, the more space between the 2 solid sides, the more air can get in there and cool the rotor. the vanes, which connect the 2 solid sides together act like a fan and pump air through it. curved vanes make for a more efficient fan than straight vanes. bedding track pads is important, same for aggressive street pads (the ones advertised for autox or claim they can handle light track duty). for regular street pads it doesn't matter. The BP10 is a very mild street pad. not correction but advice: its also a good idea to put brake grease on the side edges of the pad (only the backing plate, not the friction material) where it comes into contact of the caliper. thats the part of the pad and caliper that rub on each other as you engage and release the brakes. Also an important note is there's brake lube and anti-squeal paste/glue (not exactly sure what to call it). you wanna use the paste/glue stuff on pads that come with shims (typically only street pads come with these) that wrap around the pad backing plate (between the pad and shim) and brake lube where you expect movement. personally I just use high temp anti-seize for track pads. it has a higher temp rating than any brake lube I've ever seen (cause race cars don't use it, its a street car thing)

[@ThomasThough]

Dang 👍

[@randomesteven3935]

Have to agree.. Bedding of the breaks are different from manufacturer to manufacturer too. When I helped changed mine, the pads manufacturer (bendix I think) suggested to follow OEM brake bedding process, which was ATE and according to what I can find for ATE, normal braking behaviour only. No need for excessive temps or light pressure. We followed this can the brakes got better and better and is still getting better. Of course, some manufacturers recommend the hard braking too, but its usually for hard track pads.

Sidenote:clean your wheel hub when replacing rotors, the tend to build upp rust and shit you dont want clearly seen at 8:25. If not done, over time the hub gets uneven and warps the rotors faster. Love the moneypit series!

[@shemwhitehead9517]

I always spring for ceramic pads. And one trick for brake fluid, instead of draining your entire brake system, just suck out what's in the reservoir with a fluid remover or turkey baster and then fill the reservoir back up. It gives the system fresh fluid and you don't have to re-bleed the brakes.

[@Reystravels]

Its time for more powababy (turbo). Love the show. Keep it up?!!!

I remember going to a 4 piston caliper from a single sliding caliper on a car. Everyone that drove the car loved the feeling of the brakes. What I remember was how well the car would stop going down hill and for that reason I have always wanted Big BRAKES again. (:

[@hakaase]

Good to know! My mazda3 has the same thing, was planning to get the corksport big brake kit which is 4 piston

Did a big brake kit on my 05 mustang gt and oooo boy did it make a difference. Went with a rebuilt brembo caliper setup + rotors from Rockauto all for under 350. 1000% worthwhile upgrade

"It's not done twice, it's not done right." Smh true😂

[@irlcomplex]

I’ve been having trouble with my brakes, and have had parts changed out to still have the same issue, and I kept saying that I think the brake fluid absorbed water and needed to be changed, but people kept telling me that you don’t have to change it out unless it’s been in there for years. But hearing him recommend changing it once a year makes me think that it is indeed the brake fluid

[@subarustiguy8]

"The miata is mid car" yeah sure it is, slapping on several thousand dollar brake kit! Hahaha

[@Prestiged_peck]

I recognize that kit cause I sell wilwoods all the time, that kit's only like 15-1700 an axle, now if he were going 6 or 8 piston then THAT would be expensive

11:19 The most that I ever done in a car was to change a set of tires and even I know that when you're going under it you better have a backup plan in case it falls, like wheels or logs to support the weight of the car just enough so you don't get crushed.

[@dil6969]

Flyin Miata sells various versions of this kit. The front and rear calipers + rotors and hardware is around $1500 if I recall correctly. For 99% of Miatas out there, it's definitely not worth it, especially at stock power. it does look nice though.
