Hi folks, aspiring goblin purchaser here with just a few silly but important questions (unable to find answers with the search feature)
I have recently purchased a cobalt ss/tc that is intended to be the donor for a future kit that I will be purchasing. As I'm looking through people's builds I'm noticing one thing that hasn't been discussed at length or isn't touched on much.... and that's brakes.
Being that my donor is an SS and has the Brembo upgrade I was wondering if anybody has used these on the kit . Just from knowing cobalts I know that this would severely limit the wheels and tires that I could run. I also know that due to this kit car weighing half of what the cobalt Weighs there's a good possibility I don't need that much braking.
Just wondering what everybody's opinions on brakes are. guys that have kits, guys that autocross or road race them are they having issues with fade and what are the stock brakes most often used .
