• Does your car have disc brakes? The chances are
  there if it is a new car. However if it's very
  old it might not. Do you know why car
  manufactures does full float disc brake
  conversion? The answer is for safety.
• The benefits of 14 bolt full float disc brake
  conversion is that it stops faster and has less
  fade than the older style of drum brakes.
• A drum brake simply looks like a flat plate with
  a large lip. The drum pads sit inside the drum
  brake and press against the lip. There is little
  room for the heat build up to escape due to the
  way the drum brake is packaged. The brake pad
  overheats with the lack of cooling and starts to
  lose some of its ability to cause friction with
  the drum. This is known as brake fading and when
  you apply brake, it starts to fail and you cannot
  stop as fast.

• Another problem with drum brakes is when they
  became wet. It again lose the ability to create a
  lot of friction due to water. We all know that
  less friction causes less stopping ability. 
• Disc brakes were first used on racing cars. A car
  with disc brakes could go further into a corner
  before braking. Their design is the reason why
  the disc brakes worked better. Unlike a lip on a
  drum brake the pads on a disc brake system rub
  against the disc or rotor. This rotor is exposed
  to the air and can bleed off heat much faster
  than a drum. It is more resistant to brake fade
  as it can get rid of heat faster and thus
  enabling a car to stop faster. 
• In addition to the advantage of not fading fast,
  the disc brake also stands firm from the problem
  with water. Since the disc is exposed a light
  exhort of the pads against the rotor will prevent
  most of the water, which helps the disc brake
  system to stop faster in the wet also.
