Does anyone have a set of springs off the car that could take some measurements of the ID of the top and bottom of the springs where the springs sits on the perch at the front and rear of the car?
Thanks

You mention "...the ID of the top and bottom...". Are you talking of the pads or the shape of the spring. Not sure I or we understand your question

I agree, the brakes are not on par with the performance. I cooked my brakes several times when driving down mountain passes, despite high temperature brake fluid and high temp brake pads. The only way around that is to install bigger discs and 4 or 6 piston calipers

I decided to show off & do one little burnout & it almost cost me my life. Right after I ended up goin down a steep *** street n my brake pedal felt like a brick....I was serving running red lights in pouring rain avoiding cars when finally I was able to stop using the e brake...scary. One guy I almost hit was so mad he followed me and it ended up being a guy I went to high school with.
