i should be doing this in the spring with stoptech rotors and project mu pads they are very powerfull

I'll be getting 2 peice rotors and project mu pads later on, just got a great deal on these and didn't feel like waiting to put them on. plus I had stainless lines I wanted to get put on. It felt like a logical transition.

wow the brake upgrade is nice.. and the infiniti bbk is that much larger than the bembo's? I wish I could run the BBK's wit my setup.. I have O disc in the from and it's not much clearance, unless I use wheel spacers.

Oh and about the OEM rotors they will warping .. i had to replace my with some stoptech slot/drill rotors.. a better braking improvement over the OEM rotors
