SoI was going to get a Stoptech Stage 2 upgrade kit over the winter, but saw this on Z1 Motorsports. It's like $200 less expensive ($575). Does anyone see a reason why not to get this? It looks like it is just a Z1 branded brake upg kit. I know that Z1 is a pretty reputible shop. So I doubt they would put their name on something unless they new it was good. But has anyone heard of these or had an experience with these? To me it looks like a solid kit, but your saving money just because it doesn't say "StopTech" or "Brembo" on it.

Iono, if someone can fill me in on some info or opinions that would be great.

ANd I just found out that the rotors are made by Brembo

 

Hm...I can get RacingBrake rotors, HPS pads, Goodrich lines, and a bottle of ATE superblue for less. Not much less, but less.

EDIT: For 2005-> G35. For the ones with Brembo calipers it's going to be more. '03-'04 non-brembos around the same price.

 

Go for it! Sounds like a good deal.

 

Sounds fine, though I'm not a big fan of HPS pads. Poor initial bite.

 

my hawk pads are awesome ...

i broke em in properly as per hawks site ..

im thinking of getting this as well ...

there direct replacements for oem .. right ..

 

I've had them on my prior car, and bedded them properly (twice), yet was still dissatisfied with the cold bite. They were quite scary in the rain. When you have a higher temp pad (with more fade resistance) something has to give - cold stopping power.

 

yeah rain wasnt tooo kool now that you say it ..
