The newer FM/Goodwin kits are the ****. And probably not much more expensive.
* I had the Panache / Monster miata kit shown and upgraded to the FM/Goodwin.

That kit is, in my opinion*, not ideal. 6 fasteners that are of undisclosed quality to hold the hats onto the rotors. Too much rear bias with the '7 rear calipers. Steel rotors that wear poorly.

Really... hmm I was thinking this was the best kit on the market. I looked at the baer kit, but its too heavy.

weight, 4 pistons, surface area, coolness. it all makes a difference.
my buddies dad, on his mustang race car started with stock size rotors/pads and sotck claipers. soon upgrade larger calipers (thunderbird i believe) with stock rotor size. Then even larger (thunderbird again I think) calipers and rotors. Then just finally upgraded to 5-lug 94-95 cobra rotors and calipers and wishes he had just done it in the first place.
I'd love to feel a 4 piston over our oem calipers.

well I'm still deciding what to go with... my cars being built mainly for track since I've got another car for daily use. I don't see a point in going cheap and not geting the best thing money can buy. y8s so you think I should go with the goodwin 4 kit?

I've recently installed wilwood 4piston calipers with 11" zimmermann rotors bbk for the front, I went from brembo rotor/ hawk hps pads to wilwood w/SS lines. All I can say is it's such a big improvement, I love these, brakes never felt so nice and firm. I'm also doing a custom bbk rear kit using the stock caliper with 10.9" rotor and Project Mu D1 spec brake pads, to even out the balance and hopefully my ebrake will be better. Just waiting for pads to come from japan.
