Brembos Installed...Thx WheelSTO!

Big thanks to WheelSTO for getting me the best quoted price and extremely fast shipping!

Some Pictures...

All four getting laid out and ready to install


Comparing stock rotors to the Brembo 380mm


Stock still seems to have more surface area? or optical illusion?


Stock single piston (floating caliper)


http://www.dentsport.com did the install


off comes the stock caliper + rotor + brake line..


...on goes the new 6 piston front brakes..They cut the dust shield in front and totally removed the rear one..


Installed!


Taken by a friend at a local Cars & Coffee meet.


These brakes would make the biggest difference on the track obviously but I notice no real difference in stopping power on the street.. I guess the only thing I feel is that the braking is more "even." The stock brakes used to have this big initial bite to them and then fade out.. The Brembos don't have this bite.
