"bang for buck"... not best kit and not cheapest kit... just the best kit for money spent.

I'm not suggesting they are not without fault... but dollar for dollar, I dont know of anything I personally would say is a better value.

I would imagine that's something only you could determine since it's basicly an opinion of 1 vs the other.

right... and I'm asking for yours... I already stated mine.

You stated Racing Brake as being a better bang for buck than Akebono and I'm asking why?

I can, but to avoid repeating information you might already know, I want to know what research/opinion/conclusions you have.

And no, you won't be able to bait me into doing your research for you.

you don’t have an answer Jeff... I already said, that's okay.

Do you know when enough is enough? You have no answer so there is no point in responding... and me responding your lack of answer is pointless, so I won’t keep responding.

But you reply was incorrect.

I'm better at this game than you Mike. Let's see, how to I post a similar sarcastic reply? Hmm I know.......

It's okay Mike. It looks like you have not visited the site, researched the price or the setup. Nor have you given your basic opinion for me to reply to.

Actually there was no point in responding once you saw me ask you if you visited the site or not. But you did.

I appreciate your "advice" but I'll determine if I need to reply to a post or not.

Jeff, you cant directly answer a direct question and you have not given a basis for you opinion... all you've done is try to redirect the subject... its okay to admit you have no basis.

You are always the guy out there telling everyone all the cold hard facts and info you have... way are you so reluctant now? No offense, but it seems to me only one reason, you don’t have any.

Sure, we can go on and on... but I have yet to see you post anything relevant to qualify your "opinion" that Racing Brake is a better bang for buck than Akebono... type, type and type away - but until you answer that question you are just trying to side-step the question.

.
How is this "sidestepping"??? It's a direct revelance to the subject in hand?



Why would I write 2 paragraphs of info you already(might) know?

Ie.. you asked ME how much the Racing Brake kit(s) are. Now why would that be a question to me if you can visit the site and compare yourself?

I asked you many, many, many times... in your opinion, what makes the Racing Brake a better bang for the buck than Akebono...

if you were only able to anwer that question we would be getting somewhere... for some crazy reason you respond to everything other than that question.

And I asked you what research have you done before I answer. You haven't even defined "bang for the buck" as far as I casually remember.

Looks like the Akebono kit is the one for you Mike!
