Few caliper questions

ZoomZ · 06-04-2020, 08:33 PM

2017 Nismo. Stock Rotors, street/spirited street use only.

1.)Has anyone come up with a paint code or touch-up paint pen codes for RED Calipers?

2.)Any shade that is close without code?

3.) Akeebono pads also have an ASP line (performance) Are these the ones or PROACT version?

4.) Also looking at Carbotech 1521 series. (non-track, street version). Are they be a better upgrade to Akeebono/stock? From what I see, both are Ceramic blend.

TIA

Big fan of Stop Tech Street pads here and especially on high carbon rotors like Raybestos blanks. Much better bite and stopping power over OE.

Of reusing your rotors be sure to strip the old pad marcel off of them. Best bet is to have them turned.
