looks good,. but from what i hear, 4 piston calipers have crazy breaking. meaning they are so harsh, once little ste on brake pedal and its like your slaming on stock break system, , quick halt. but good find. i'd do it and was actually thinking about an upgrade these past 2-3 days. will probally go withthese. thanks man.

I doubt you'll ever need 4 piston calipers. The $729 package is more than you'll ever need.

Please enlighten me oh great one. WTF am I gonna need 4 piston calipers for? I don't plan on slamming my foot on the brakes while doing 140mph. I don't plan on doing auto-x so as long as the rotors and pads don't fade on me I'm fine.

I have the an SS brake kit on my car, I say keep it stock or go with TPM racing brake rotors cross drilled + slotted ultrarev.com sells those.

The big brake kit is bad when you have a flat and need to use your spare it wont work/.

If there's one area of our car that needs improvement, the brakes are it.
I have a big brake kit myself, the stock brakes perform just as good with cross drilled + slotted set up.
