I have seen a lot of brake work done here on this site and I was wondering what the best setup was...... I would like to keep the brakes/rotors themselves as light a possible and still have immense stopping power.

Also I have the Ocelot brake lines from TFS and the stock brakes right now. I love how light the stock brakes are, but will they hold up for autocross or a track day? or do I need to invest sooner? also take into account my goal weight of the car finished is 2200lbs ish

Which year car?

And what brake pads do you have? Not fading them is largely a function fo pad choice.

If its pre 88, do the "grand am upgrade" to use vented rotors then get EBC brake pads. You could also get their grand am rotors too if you got the cash to spend.

The Grand Am calipers are iron... not a good choice for weight added.

If you used the aluminum Wilwood calipers with the usual brackets and 11.25" LeBaron rotors, you could probably limit the weight gain to be the same as the Grand Am swap, but have a much better result.

Anyone have suggestions for a 1988 fiero that might fit behind the stock 15" lace wheels?

Oops forgot to mention that I have an 84 with 18 inch Forte Rims.

Anywhere Wilwood products are sold... Summit, for example.

They're not listed for the Fiero. They're listed for th 3rd Gen Camaro. Because the 3rd Gen calipers are used with LeBaron rotors in the typical 11.25" upgrade, the Wilwood calipers will also work.

With the standard 11.25" brake setup.

Thanks Will! I have seen two guys on cardomain with Willwood brakes and I was wondering how they got them to fit. Now I know the secret. Have you done this brake swap or has anyone else? Is there anything I need to watch out for?

*Bump*

Here is a long discussion of the subject....not sure if it has your answer.
