IIRC a good set set of stock OEM brakes should be about 300, which is still pants.

there are figures on here some where...

Here are mine three years ago on a full stock set up I've now upgraded the discs and pads.

a slightly low oil level will make next to no difference.

It's gotta be scary as hell having brakes that are worse than stock. :shock:
