Rallyesport, you've modified your brakes with better fluid, better pads, and disconnected the ABS, so it's no longer a standard setup... so you can't really claim that the standard brakes are good enough else you'd have kept them standard, right?
It pretty much standard. The brake fluid must be changed every two years. And pads wear out, so why not buy som better ones? They cost pretty much the same. I have not spent much money on brakes and it works very good at the track. Even with totaly standard setup (ofcourse it has to be serviced once and while) the RS Turbo has good stopping power compared to alot of cars. But the brake feel is not good, but the brakes will stop you quite fast.
