That looks beautiful. What size are the rotors? How much did the front setup run you?

What's the difference between Stoptech and Brembo? Cost difference? stopping distance?

Congrats on the Stoptechs. Are they the 13" fronts? Do you track your car at all?

They are the 13" StopTech kit. I got them from Coz @ http://www.conceptzperformance.com. He's an awesome guy to deal with and I definitely recommend him. The time from order to receiving it was absolutely amazing.

Now, I kinda want the rear BBK cause the rears look SO SMALL NOW!! haha Too much money though.. or is it?? haha jk
