Improve braking on a RR 4.4 TDV8 313cv

Hello
Has anyone ever tried to improve the quality of braking on a range 4.4 TDV8 by putting:
- of perforated discs
- by changing the quality of the platelets (other than that sold by the concession)
- by ascending oversized stirrups and thus larger platelets
- see larger discs

What would you suggest?

Thank you for your advice and/or feedback

Michel

just change to EBC pads (they claim) can give you better stopping power, up to 30%

. Cheers, Greg

I must admit after 6 yrs of driving the 3.6, with Brembo brakes, I do find my 2012 does not stop, anywhere near as quickly.
I am also looking at alternative discs and pads

Are the pads glazed? Mine seem to be very aggressive after towing my 2T van.

What pads are you running? Lots of NON OE pads do NOT work on the 6 pots... And as 322's & 405's get a little older, sent to indies that fit ECP specials unfortunately Rolling Eyes

Yes those are the ones.

Another member fitted these (yellow) which are the highest performance version.

I have the green ones (Greenstuff) fitted.

The brakes themselves are 6-pot brembos, can you get better? I guess if you go to race-style floating / cross-drilled etc. But you will need bigger wheels to fit anything bigger.

. Cheers, Greg

I have yellow stuff on my fronts and they are overkill , greenstuff more than up to the job. Yellow stuff won't fade and under normal driving nor will green stuff. Maybe your pads or discs have an issue ? 2015 4.4 AB
