So seriously, people aren't stupid and chill out.

that's the point I am getting at. I think it's ridiculous to see people upgrading their brakes to brembo's, especially since most seem to do it for the look. but, pads are obviously a wear item and a 15 min change out so why throw stockers back on there if there's something better?
and also, I don't even know if the 993/Elise/STi has better 60-0 braking stats or not than the Z, they might not. I'm talking about the feel of the brakes. I'm sure all 3 cars are very close in performance. to me it just seems in hard braking or a panic stop that the Z is more squirrely, requires more effort, and does not seem as confident.
