Many ways Craig.
- A full bleed and freshen up of the fluid
- New master cylinder and kit the calipers
- Braided lines
- TB48 brake upgrade, which involves, TB48 front calipers, master cylinder, rotors, backing plates and pads.
- Hydro booster
Price goes up as you go further down the line. lol. I've done the TB48 brake upgrade and braided lines and when I had my car engineered the engineer commented on how good my brakes were.

Is this something you can achieve with an angle grinder & a high speed drill bit?

Grooved/dimpled rotors with EBC Greenstuff series 6000 pads transformed the braking on my ute, & that was only on the front axle (drums on rear). One day I’ll get around to braided lines too.
