Nobody's questioning that, but like most others in here it seems, I agree the 8-pot BBK is overkill...

What did you go with?

I went with the 8 pot 15" rotors and 6 pot 14" rotors... I am also going TT so for me it makes sense. Much larger pad surface area evenly distributed heat and etc... will help slow my soon to be sick fast car! Plus I am working to build mine into a cover car so I need the bling for the magazines.

You have to sign in to my350z to see the pic, but it was a crappy cell phone pic so I wouldn't bother.

^^lol it's that attitude that causes all z33's to resent it, as if it's our fault that Nissan wanted to upgrade from the z33, then again I wonder how we'll feel with a z35 comes out. Though I doubt you'll care Lou, no Nissan future car is going to put down your kind of power.

*NSFW Language*
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WQprLGuo6U

These BRAKES FREAKING ROCK!!!
1-10
in short
Quality is a 10
Looks is a 10
Performance so far 12!!!

I never thought the car can stop so fast!

Just remember that #1 any car is limited by pads and by tires, those 2 alone control initial stopping distances. Upgrading the brake calipers and rotors is mainly to improve the performance in repeated braking, doesn't necessarily have an impact in initial braking other than that the pads supplied with the kit may be more aggressive.
