    Is anyone autocrossing their Mirage to the point where brake fade is an issue? I gotta imagine there are a few of you guys throwing the Mirage around the cones.

    No issues yet. On a circuit though, you notice it after a bit but that depends on the track. Plus, the brakes get shmangled pretty bad.

    With the mountain grades where I am my front rotors are warped very bad. I might get them machined soon but I would love to upgrade to something better.

    What about using a higher quality / thicker rotor from maybe a Honda. Same bolt pattern. Could be a direct fit.
