These brakes have so much potential.
But the huge lag on some 2-piece rotors has had me thinking of picking up some used or new Stoptechs.
On the bright side, I am, for now, at least keeping my new years resolution of no big mod purchases

Dont get the wrong idea no one is pissed just from experience in the marketing business Akebono can sell other colors higher than the originals but who will buy @ HIGHER price when its cheaper to let someone powder coat them!!!
The fact that they are getting additional orders for these OEM brakes is great for them! I'm sure they anticipated it though...
