I remember reading the Car&Driver review of TR-8 when it was new. Seems to
me it was written by Pat Bedard, if that matters. He (or they) went bonkers
over the car, especially the acceleration and handling, but were less than
impressed with the brakes. They even pointed out as to how the diameter of
the rotors had been reduced from the TR-7, though the swept area was still
high. They commented as to how they would have considered diameter to be
the more critical parameter. It does suggest, though, that TR-7 brakes
might be a better choice, if the parts will fit. Bill S., is this reasonable?
