I've always liked yours, and seeing Gurney's kinda clenched it for me. :tup:

Did you notice a difference in stopping power?

Hard to say if they make a difference on their own. I did those and stainless lines along with a fluid change at the same time.

I'll let you pansies know how good it is in a minute.

As long as it makes you feel better! :tup:

Ok, I'm having to look that up now! :tiphat:

Edit: Interesting! A Russian Imperial Stout. Yummy.

Hmm, mayhaps I will check out the SS lines as well. :)

Edit: That's nice for only an extra $100. What fluid did you go with, Motul?

I went with the ATE Super Blue from Z1.
It made the fluid change easy since there was a colour change ;)

Yes. I received a set myself. Some people were having fitment issues. The hood would bulge slightly after install. I have not installed mine to confirm this.

Hmmm...
I thought this was the set of struts that did not cause bulges.

Excellent! Before you install them, paint the inside edge - about 3/4 of an inch - of the rotor and all the slots and cross-drilled holes. Best way is with Rustoleum BBQ paint (1,000°). I used a foam pad on the rotor surface and q-tips for the slots and rotors.

Baer and Jar had an issue, and I think Zman8 had an issue with the hood bulge as well.
