Default VFD braking

I want to add tapping ability (need to stop and reverse fast) to my CNC mill
with a VFD on the spindle. Its a 5 hp Hitachi SJ100.

Pages 5-8 to 5-10 discuss adding a brake resistor. If I understand correctly
I can put 2 resistors in parallel for more braking. This unit calls out a 35
ohm resistor. Two in parallel would be 17.5 ohms. Am I reading these tables
right?

I seen a 500 watt 16 ohm power resistor on eBay. Close enough or do you have
to be right on?
