    I hear you. I'm just bankin on the fact that they are brembo's. So hopefullly???
    The genny already stops at a pretty good 111ft. At minimum I would want to match the 103ft the Z gets to 0. But 99ft would be my goal.

    i don't have exact braking distances, but i have done a test with brembo oem pads versus frixa street pads. frixa consistently stopped shorter. brembo outperformed the frixas once (by a few inches), but the second and third was inconsistent and much longer. this was done on my v6 versus the 4 cylinder...so the car with frixa's was heavier too

    i use the race pads (which are readily available through me) on the track ALL the time and consistently stops my car when i need it to.

    brembo pad data:



    GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! FINAL PRICING IS IN. PRODUCTION IS READY TO START!

    PEOPLE LIVING IN THE USA: $85 SHIPPED. PEOPLE LIVING IN CANADA $100 SHIPPED.

    paypal to chris@psychologyofcar.com. remember to include your name, address, phone number, email address, which forum you are from, and forum name.

    Once payment for 25 brake pads have been received, order will go out. a total of 50 brake pad sets will be ordered. i see 34 people or so on this list. once order goes out, it'll take approximately 14 days to receive it, and then will be distributed from my location. local people to me can pick up the brake pads at a reduced cost.

    satheian got the ball rolling. i got the manufacturer ready. now it's all up to you guys!
