Do not even compare them to AP or Brembo as they are nothing like them in performance or quality.When I hit my middle pedal, I want to know it will work, not hope it will work because I cheapend out on my ricey calipers.

It just came up in a conversation we was having, He owns a Jap car performance parts/accesries shop does whole tuning type of thing too and he was suprised what type of power I was expecting with the future mods ill be getting. Told him my stock brakes wont last long and he brang them out to me.. Theres a reason why brembos cost the amount they do. Its cause they are known to actually work well are preferred by many car companies and so on. I also though, if guys are having a hard time finding aftermarket wheels to fit over brembos what the hell am I gonna get that's gonna fit over those haha
