Has anyone thought about this to make our LNFs Brembo all around?

no. why bother.?rear brakes dont do much. If its looks, paint them, or fine spend bucks for nutin. But no handbrake no good brake balance. its the answer to a question no body asked....except you

i thought about it but figured it would be more money than it was worth.

The rear calipers are bigger than most fronts on cars.
Changing to a different pad compound from a aftermarket company could improve your stopping power, if that's what your looking for.

stopping is a function of tires. pad compound changes the aggresiveness of the initial bite and the modulation rate/feel and heat fade resistance. stopping distance (power) is a function of the tires not the brake pad. but good point except its all relative. go look at a porsche ferrari or zr1 if you want to know what big brakes really are ...

LNF cars have more brake than a Koni Challenge car.......you dont need more.

Get some braided stainless brake hoses so you have stronger/safer hoses more consistant feel, aftermarket pads will also help tune the feel of the system, you dont nee more brake though.

here comes the voices of reason lol

but they are right...

yup braided brake lines great idea - safe, looks, firmer pedal last longer etc.
so talk to me about turbo wax and why it is so good, alabama...

if you are serious i can tell you in PM's...but knowing you i dont think you are....so go rip me a new one in the coilover thread...please!!!

what is really surprising is how many people dont realize that if you can lock up your tires then your brakes are already maxed out....and that your tires are the main contributer to stopping in a certain distance....if you can apply mor brake without lock-up you will stop faster than you would with bigbrakes and locking up quicker...

i kno our LNF's dont need better brake i was jus thinking to the looks u kno. whats the diameter of the LSJ rotors smaller then the LNF's corrent

qwikredline

you want the looks and can go without the hand brake it is do-able but not advisable...you would have to cut the brake pad lining down to reduce the swept contact area for hardware balance... I suggest you leave it alone and just powdercoat your stock rear calipers for looks..
