MASSIVE! 380mm Big Brake Kit Upgrade fitted to my I30N DCT FL

Finally! I visited Forge Motorsport to have their new HUGE 380mm 6 pot big brake kit fitted to my I30N DCT FL along with EBC RP-1 pads from Demon tweeks

Very tempting to upgrade. Good to know that they are compatible with the standard 19inch FL wheels (albeit with a 3mm spacer)

Fantastic info. This upgrade would be the first for me. Even stock the i30N is quick enough on the road to warrant the extra braking power and weight reduction. Start with the stopping power upgrade and go up in HP from there. They looked awesome on your 19s and can see them looking amazing on the stock 19s.

something NEVER mentioned with big brakes, is the fact you're increasing rotational inertia/mass = less power to the ground.. i promise
all the weight is being placed further out with larger rotors.. even if it's technically 'lighter' the weight savings is only in the center/middle (hat). it's like putting on heavier wheels.. i promise

[leonsog]

I would like to see specific measurements for breaking distance before and after.
Also, its important to know the difference in weight before and after installing the kit.
You put a lightweight wheel, but how total weight affects turning behaviour of the car?

Great video again Dan, very informative. I totally agree with you in regards to upgrading brakes with power increase. I am so surprised that so many people forget to do this!

Bro, please don't make us wait 2 months again for a vid. I am obsessed with the Hyundai i30n content!

[MrSabrecat]

Good video, but I was hoping you might mention the ABS. After re-watching the emergency stop it looks like your ABS system is intact, did Paul have to recalibrate anything to make it work smoothly?

Cool video, i'm waiting for the track video soon 💪😎

[campdw]

Does stopping the car like this put additional strain through the chassis? Was it designed for it? Will it cause issues over time?

[Trophy_R]

Looks a brilliant kit, I always thought the Vains went the other way on the discs though

[GOINFINITI]

Hello @Dan Bushell - who is actually making that brake system for them? Because it is someone with experience and manufacturing capability

[brandonfromlondonuk]

HI Dan i have only just come across your videos and watched them all in one go and i have to say you are a very good presenter, your voice and straight to the point with information style is very good ! Not Chris Harris good but very good all the same ! Nice Car also

[CMDRKailoren]

Did you only change the brake kit and not the lines? I'd be interested to know if the Forge braided brake lines would also increase braking performance over the standard lines in the standard brake setup, and if they also further increase the performance of the big brake kit

[Nmode]

You reckon the stock ones aren't good enough (personally I find them really good) or you just wanted something even better (you changed only the front ones correct?) ? We have the same model and that's why I am asking :) thanks for your time

[FuturaKreative]

Hi Dan... Happy New Year! Oh and have I spotted your car on Autotrader? Don't say you are selling up! I maybe wrong but the one for sale with Rose.. looks very familiar!

[EnormousSmartass]

Have you ever taken a measurement from 60 (62) to 0?

[dwarfkilla]

You should make a set of these for the Elantra N

[jackpartridge]

Awesome video as always.👍 Although have you had a bit of a collision?

[Damo]

How did the abs operate after installation? Did you need to calibrate it in any way?

[sanyok]

Was really wondering if you can tell what wheels you are running an offset on your i30 with this breaks
