AEM roor upgrade and motor mount question

[custom240sx]

I was going to upgrade the brakes in my car because they cant last 5 kilometers of the nurburgring without getting over heated. But i dont really want bigger wheels. So my question is : Will it be worth it to get the 11.75" upgrade or should i save the money and get 2 kosie racing 16's and get the 12.5" kit and upgrade to the awd calipers and then shave them down a bit. I dont want to get this and then get out there and still cant make it one lap around the nurburgring. Also while i have the engine dropped out for a 6 bolt swap what should i use to fill the motor mounts with, i have heard of people doing this but i cant remember what they used. Thanks for the info.

just get crossdrilled vented rotors. and if you need more braking power find some 2 piston calipers.

but i would say save up for the 12.5 bigger rotors are always better.

might want to try some 17" wheels to rotors will probably fit alot better under them.

The AEM rotors will crack on track days with the crossdrilling, at least they did for me.

I have heard that AEM is finally coming out with non-drilled version of their rotors! Its about time!

Also, despite of what most people will tell 12.5" rotors will fit under "some" 16" wheels... The only way to know for sure is to try it out. Though, you might have to grind your caliper a bit (not a big deal).

No kidding, I was asking them about it two years ago
