We should get the guy asking about the light-weight brakes to trial them!

These are the same calipers that he got without the rotors or anything else.

In all seriousness, I don't know who this is marketed to. If i were to go with a racing kit, i'd get something like an AP racing. For the street, the Akebono upgrade is way more cost effective.

If i'm spending money on the braking system, the ABS swap is what I would go for first.

I guess it depends on what you are doing. A track day car would benefit more than most anyone once their times start to come down. A couple of guys are getting really fast. The only reason I would need it is to slow the car down after a 1/2 mile run. Our brakes need more clamping force when you get up in the triple digits. 150 and above.

I guess I should add the price difference. If you look at just the front kit, the Nismo 6pot is a whole $1k more than the AP racing Front kit (on concept Z) I guess if you want nismo branding???

I was looking at the Stoptech trophy brakes. Nismo's are 2k cheaper when you include the carbotech pad upgrade.

The guy you are referring to is Imperial, he had some fuzz with the Z1 order.

I think Abm is referring to the member that was asking about steel rotors on Z35 or somethg.

This kit has been put for a while no? Isn’t this the rebranded Stop Tech BBK?
