Brakes that keep up
with the engine.
Pads, rotors, lines and fluid for street cars; full big-brake kits for track work. The cheapest insurance a fast car can carry — and the first thing that should go on a car that's had power added.
Fast is easy. Stopping is engineering.
Add 30% more power and the car gets to the next corner 30% faster — on brakes designed for the old speed. That's the maths nobody thinks about until the pedal goes long halfway down a hill.
Street cars get the sensible package: performance pads, decent rotors, braided lines and high-temp fluid. That's most of what a big-brake kit gives you in real use, at a third of the price.
Track cars get the honest version: proper pads and fluid first, because nine times out of ten that's what was actually fading. If you genuinely need a big-brake kit after that, we'll fit one — but we'll talk you into it with lap data, not marketing.
Pricing
AUD, GST included. Fixed quote before the car comes in — the number doesn't move after.
| Job | Includes | From |
|---|---|---|
| Street package | Performance pads, rotors, braided lines, fluid — the 90% solution | $950 |
| Track package | Race pads, track fluid, lines — survives a Lakeside session | $1,350 |
| Big-brake kit | Larger calipers + rotors, quoted per car — for when pads aren't enough | $3,800 |
| Pads + rotors only | The core upgrade — fitted, bedded, ready same day | $620 |
| Fluid flush (track fluid) | High-temp fluid through the whole system — yearly for track cars | $180 |
| Braided lines (set of 4) | Firmer pedal, consistent feel — pairs with any pad upgrade | $420 |
Pad compound changes everything — street pads squeal less, track pads bite harder cold-ish but eat rotors. Tell us how you drive and we'll spec it once, correctly.
In and out the same day
Most brake jobs are a morning's work. Here's the run sheet.
Ask about yoursPad life, rotor thickness and condition, line age, fluid state. Sometimes a car needs a service, not an upgrade — we'll say so.
Right compound for your use — daily driver, tow rig or track car get different pads. This choice matters more than rotor size.
Pads, rotors, lines — everything cleaned, greased where it should be and torqued to spec. Pistons and sliders get checked, not skipped.
Fresh fluid through the whole system — old fluid is the cheapest fade there is, and it costs $180 to not have.
Proper bed-in procedure on the road — the step that decides whether the pads work or glaze. Then a final pedal check and you're out.
The other five services
Stopping gear
Not glamorous. Just the part that decides whether the fast bits were a good idea.
Genuine need — the car was cracking consistent fast laps on cooked stock calipers.
The $600 fix for the spongy pedal — before and after you can feel at the lights.
Pads, rotors, fluid after the Stage 1 tune — stops like it goes now.
Ang brakes late.
He'll sort yours too.
Our chassis bloke does the brake side as well — same person who sets your alignment specs your pads, because on a track car they belong to the same conversation.
His rule: pads and fluid before hardware. If a customer wants a big-brake kit for the look, he'll fit it happily — after a two-minute chat about whether the car actually needs it.
