All working components and a decent set of pads will never fade on the street. There's just no way to put enough stress and repeated abuse for even a set of 11" brakes to cook. I ran 11" GT brakes for many years on the race track in a Fox and at 3-3100 lbs race weight with brake coolers had zero issues with fade. Even tracks that are notoriously hard on brakes. Same setup on my 94 got a little fade the 1st time out, car was heavier, 3200, but I didn't have the brake coolers. Brakes would start to not bite as hard towards the end of each session.My point is, brakes for function and brakes for bling require different components. But bigger brakes no matter what the function will feel like a new car. Just remember to balance the system so you get the most for the mods, don't skimp on pads, and since the tires actually stop you they need to be up for the job too.</blockquote>
