    DC5 Base Brakes Upgrade

    Quick question,
    recently went on a spirited drive through the hills going hard to keep up with a DC2R in my base DC5, ended up frying my stock brakes (still work fine though). Decided its time for upgrade.
    Should I go for slotted discs/ebc pads for the front only or on all four corners?

      Sounds good. I'm planning to get some braided brake lines as well, does anyone have experience with HEL brake lines?
      And would DC5R braided brake lines fit on my Base DC5? Cheers

          Aw lucky guy.
          I think I'll sell it and buy a Type R, too much hassle with the base

            Up to you... Make sure buy one which is clean and not being abused... Otherwise I keep the base, if I was you.
