Brakes D2 Brakes arrived today


D2 8-POT 356MM Front


D2 6-POT 330MM Rear

I hope to have them installed in the next few days. A lot of that depends on if they will fit under the stock '05 18" Sedan Sport wheels. Once installed, I will do a review of their performance. I will also get a lot of pictures taken once installed.

First Impressions:

The build quality seems very good. The SS lines are top quality. Overall, I am very impressed.

Looks great and unique color, but yeah, I don't like the blatant pot numbers engraved on them.

Not sure if those fixed wide calipers have a chance at clearing the stock sedan wheels. Maybe the oem 18s from the Z or G would.

What's the rotor size and weights?

Retail is:
