re: front brake improvements.

Moss sells vented (cross-drilled) rotors.  Would these do the trick?

Coupled with semi-metallic pads, I'd say they'd be adequate grip to stop
most cars... TR rotrs are about the same size as the brakes on my dad's
HunkOMurkunSteel car.  And it stops fast...

Of course, your brakes are useless if your tires slip...!

I've also heard of putting two calipers on a single rotor (IMHO, that's
overkill)... the TR6, of course, also can use a power brake booster, which
can do a lot for your braking power.
