Brakes make the car go stop!
Brake rotors
lightening holes are ok - don't drill them yourselves, though
non-flat brake rotors have disadvantages, but overall worth it
differences between holes/slots
Brake calipers
please don't drill lightening holes in your brake calipers
Master cylinders
please don't drill lightening holes in your master cylinder
Brake balancing
More front brake = More rear cornering capacity, balance goes towards understeer under braking but could reduce braking times
More rear brake = More front cornering capacity, balance goes towards oversteer under braking but could increase braking times - try braking earlier first, rear brake will not fix a late braking problem from the driver
