I have a feeling people are going to be awfully scared of electric operated brakes.

one bad ground and puff....no brakes. except for your emergency system....umm no thanks.

 

good for less unsprung mass, but i want to know the modulation as well besides just an altering amount of current. and perhaps far off in the future they can use these systems to propel a vehicle, perhaps w/o a motor and just an electrical system for accessories. w/o a motor the car could be lighter but i dont see it being in any sports type of cars

 

What about mercedes' brake-by-wire system? Isn't it much the same?

 

You'll make more money if the product is sucessful. Hm....ALL automakers around the world..yeah, that's some nice money right there, I'd tell em to go fuck themselves.

 

yep, Mercedes is coming out with electro-magnetic brakes, BMW will have a 36 Volt system next year compare to all others using 12 Volt which isn't sufficent to many new cars with full options anymore, this also says Chrysler should have some interesting stuff in years to come i would think.

 

dont get big ass stuff, i just used good rotors, Brembo makes factory replacements for just about everything, and EBC pads, and i had lost ALL the stupid stock WRX fade... they were good pads, of course this was stock caliper, i dont know how it would all work now


ALSO... no one noticed that they said it could be used to POWER CARS too! thats scary, ill keep my dirty ass internal combustion motor over a big ass battery and some wound coil

dude, i ran a 13, i just put 12 optimas in my car...
