So, you’ve had a remap and increased your vehicle’s performance and handling—maybe even a significant boost in BHP or torque. That’s fantastic! But how are your standard brakes going to cope with all that extra power? The honest answer: probably not very well.
 
The same goes for towing and off-roading. Even if your vehicle is marketed as a 4×4 or a workhorse for construction or agricultural use, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s built to handle heavy-duty demands straight from the factory.
This is where upgrading your brakes becomes essential. Performance is exhilarating, but it’s only truly enjoyable when safety backs it up. Knowing your vehicle has uprated brakes to match your increased workload means you can drive with confidence, whether on a performance car pushing its limits, or a workhorse handling heavy towing and off-road tasks.
For performance vehicles, uprated brakes give you peace of mind to push both yourself and your car, knowing the handling and stopping power is there exactly when you need it.
 
For work vehicles, upgraded brakes provide the reliability you need to manage heavier loads safely—whether towing commercially or enjoying leisure activities like caravanning, kit cars, or jet skis. It ensures your vehicle can handle everything you demand of it, safely and confidently.

WHY SHOULD I UPGRADE MY BRAKES

Increasing the demands on your brakes—whether from a performance boost or carrying extra weight—means they’re going to generate more heat than standard brakes can safely handle. This reduces the effective usage time of factory-fitted brakes and can lead to decreased performance and longevity. Upgrading your brakes ensures your vehicle is more efficient, effective, and has a longer working life.

But it’s not just about performance—there’s a bit of fun for the petrolhead in all of us! For those with open-style wheels, showing off a set of big brake calipers or upgraded discs isn’t just practical—it’s a statement.

 

That little smug smile when you’re pulled up at a petrol station, and the nods of appreciation from fellow car enthusiasts?

That’s part of the thrill.

At Elite Performance Tuning, we know it’s often the small details that transform a vehicle from just a car—or a workhorse—into a beloved companion. One that makes you smile just seeing it on the drive, and fall in love with it all over again every time you get behind the wheel. That’s exactly what we aim to achieve.
