  • brake cooling?

    okay so i have decided that i'm gonna build my car for auto X and well this is an idea i have been playing with okay what about a vent on the fender with some tubing that goes and comes out by the break of course i would have to take the dust shields off and then that exposes my shocks to heat so i would have to get coil overs but wouldn't that be just as good as slotted rotors or even better because it wouldn't cause excessive ware on the pads

        still wouldn't bother with it, auto X stuff is too short to get aspire rotors to fade. make sure you use SS brake lines, and concentrate on your suspention and tires.
