I am so jealous of your car I only wish I could get sponserships and have a sick TT car. I remember Solopresident I think had 10 or 12 pot brakes like your and he was trying to get them to sell for something like 7k

Pics of the brakes(In chrome) mounted on a G37

Yeah, those are the same brakes, just cross drilled (not as bueno) I paid less than he was trying to sell them for used!! haha! Plus I have the rotor hats color matched, which is only the second set they have done to my understanding. Amusingly enough the other set is on an RX7 that my buddy owns. He's the head of our car team!

I submitted a proposal to rotora about a sponsorship, in the proposal was a link to the video. Working for sponsorships is tough in it's own right....
