Thanks guys for your comments,

The engine was never touched since i own the car for 7 years now, but i must agree that the 350 hp it gives are quiet hard to stop sometimes ...
I think a grinding of my front discs could be a no wasted time.

Malc have you any ref of part n° to submit for the rear calipper & vented disc ? I wonder otherwise if i won't go for the Hispec with the handbrake system which seems to be really good value. I know that i'll have to modify the rear uprights to fit them which it is not an easy job, especially to have the calipper bracket in the good line with the rotor. Having good brakes is the most important before any other improvements i totaly agree with that too !
