I just wanted to give my props to Jacob (AcidJake) for putting the OEM Brembo BBK, Stoptech Rotors, and SS lines on my G tonite.

He did a great job! Its a lot of work and he had all the right tools, including the tools to cut and smooth out the dust shields (or whatever you call that) around the rear rotors to be able to put bigger rotors. He takes his time and gets the job done right.

Thanks a lot man, really appreciate it. I will post some pics up tomorrow.

 

Few pics... I KNOW my camera lens and the wheels are dirty.

 

Whoa, Thanks Holmes! I get my own thread and everything...

Im in for pics with a good camera...

Props on getting parts on the fly..

 

That looks really nice! Great job Jake!

 

few pics added

 

yea jake! hey bro im gettin coilovers and the camber arms soon.. u think i can have ur expertise in installation?

 

SRS? oh man you lucky SOB.. dang... Baller..

Sending you a PM ...oh man - theres going to be LOTS of measuring..BUT its going to look BALLER.. Thank gawd you got camber arms bro.. Hell ya I will help..

 

Looks good sychs notice any difference in stopping or peddle feel? Another good job by Jake, he takes alot of pride and is very careful most of the time Jake knows what I am talking about.

 

you know Im XTRA careful now -

We all learn our lessons...Some are CERTAINLY more expensive than others..Right Kirk?

 

Honestly, it feels the same as before. Maybe its bc of the brake pads. I have stock used 04 brembo brake pads vs I had new Project Mu non brembo brake pads before. Kinda downgraded on the brake pads for now.

 

Quite right I am going to be paying for mine for a while now. Live and learn that's all you can do.

 

Screw the Tin Snips, the best tool is the Dos Equis XX empty beer bottle in the picture. Without it the whole swap is impossible!

 

^ you got that right!

 

UPDATE: I do feel big difference when I brake hard during spirited driving.
Normal driving and braking, I dont feel any difference.
