Project Backmarker: Brake Upgrade Discussion with FastBrakes
By Brian Gillespie

Project Backmarker is a mature car. With mature cars we need to address vitals like the brake system. This is a special episode of Project Backmarker with an in-depth discussion of brakes not only for our project but for Hondas more generally. Brian Hasty of FastBrakes joins us to talk about brake sizing, proportioning, power assist, wheel fitment, drums vs. discs and all the other details to make sure we have the correct system for our car.
