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.

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.Originally Posted by Kirks06

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!

Normal driving and braking, I dont feel any difference.
