I'll give the brakes credit, however, the Akebono design has proven to be inefficient and suffer from fade after a hot lap or two. The VLSD, well, its a VLSD. Leaving only SRM to prove its worth, and it does, however, an experienced heel toe-er like myself can execute the same function. I never once argued that for 3k, the SP is a great deal, however, some of the points brought up about how the SP will outperform the base in every respect are false. I have a feeling this thread is quickly going to turn into yet another pissing match, so I'll respectfully bow out before it does, i've spoken my piece.

Not bad, so the 18" weight around 18-19 pounds each?
Spoiler is worthless, pure style. It is not the Akebono design, but the pads themselves, they are not track pads. I would not track the base brakes with stop pads either. Drop the money in pads/fluids and you will have very little issue. All the upgrades for the sport package will outperform the base counter-part.
