Forgot how good the stock brakes are...

So I've been riding around with bad rotors for a few months just going easy on the brakes so I don't have to feel the vibrations too bad. Finally got around to replacing the rotors today with some Centric Premium blanks and WOW!!! After properly breaking them in with the reused OEM pads and letting them cool a bit, I pushed them to their limits a few times. That's downright good stopping for stock. That is all.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods

Road and Track said back in 05 that the 05G brakes were among the best on a mass produced vehicle they had ever tested taking only 110 feet to do a 60-0 stop.
