yeah, I've read of one person that noticed an improvement with a MC bracket. He had some braking issues towing on mountain roads and was investigating a lot of upgrade ideas..

on your list of pads to try/research, put Stoptech Street Performance, they grab from cold (at least the lower20s) but are still easy to modulate. They are affordable too.

run stickier tires, even if they have worse tread life. Tires stop your car, brakes stop the wheels.

Another resurrection...

At 60,000 I'm getting a vibration in the brakes, so I want to go straight to LGT brakes.

Are the calipers really different, or is it just the rotors and brackets that need to be changed?

I only ask because when I upgrade my Impreza to WRX-spec brakes, I only needed rotors and brackets (the calipers were exactly the same).

is the vibration the reason you want to upgrade?

ANY brakes can have uneven pad deposition and vibrate.
