Default Re: Big Brake Kits: the options spelled out- Expanded version

The bottom line is that there's really little to be gained in performance by installing the discs out back. For track guys it's more about heat then rotor torque. For street guys it's all about the look. Real world braking won't be too effected by this change.
Thank you.

My next Q refers to a stock ZX3. Again, non-ABS.

Leave the stock (8"?) drums alone and add a 300mm rotor to the front; like BAT's kit or something (if you have something similar, I'd like to know) which uses the PBR caliper.

What happens to front/rear bias in this sitch?

I assume the bias balance remains safe or it wouldn't be a reputable kit.

Thanks for your time and expertise.
