Will be installing these once the rotors get back from being cryo'd by Cryoscience . I will post updated pics once they get installed, hopefully, by Father's Day.

How Cryogenic Treatment Works
Cryogenic treatment is one of the most effective treatments to improve the quality, strength and durability of metals.

When metal is formed at atmospheric temperature and pressure the molecules are disorganized and contain weak carbon particles called Austenite. What Cryogenic Treatment does is to convert these disorganized molecules and weak carbon particles into highly organized molecules and very strong carbon particles called Martinsite.

The end result of this conversion is extremely strong and durable metal. Durability (resistance to wear and fatigue) is around 100% (that’s double), the typical increase in strength is 30% to 50%. This results in dramatically reduced replacement costs. In fact typical results are a doubling of the time between engine rebuilds, replacement of disk brake rotors and also doubles the amount of cutting that virtually any blade can do before they need sharpening.

Another benefit of Cryogenic treatment is that the metal becomes a very efficient dissipated of heat. This means engines, transmissions, disk brakes, and cutting tools run much, much cooler.

Hope that helps.

Sweet, nice father's day gift!

barthelb Jun 14, 2005 01:05 PM

If you don't mind posting the cost. I know its a gift so if you don't know how much and where they were purchased thats fine. I have a CS (chrome silver) Z and i was wondering how that combo would look.

Any Silver Z's with Silver Brake Calipers out there, such as Stop Tech or other. No stock ones either, I know how some of you think!!!!!

Barthelb, I didn't see your post until now. I got this set from Coz at Concept Z Motorsports. He was selling his "demo" set and got it for $3820.75 + shipping. :icon28:

Nope. I'm getting the gang @ Street Image put these babies on! Install date set for Wednesday next week (nothing sooner). :icon14:

Nice. Welcome to the StopTech family. You will enjoy them. I like the contrast in colors too.

barthelb Jun 15, 2005 09:15 AM

Nice car, that setup should be SICK!!! Make sure you post pix. Im wondering how they'd look on my car. We tried the photoshop way and it looks descent but before I blow that much change, I would like to see if it looks like that in person or a real picture.

G3po Jun 15, 2005 09:57 AM

Great pics, I currently run the SSRs on my G35C, and was wondering how the silver STs would look. I like it.
