driven Stoptech's 14" kit , and comparing it with my Endless, the only different i can tell is the feel of Endless's initial bite is harder due to the pads difference.
i cant really tell the difference in stopping distance nor brake fading in the 10 minutes lapping, both of them holds the heat up pretty good.Although i think 10 minutes lapping is too short for heat capacity comparison.

Stoptech was my other choice as they make an excellent balanced kit. You wouldn't be disappointed with either of them.

I agree! Stoptech, Brembo, and Endless all make good brakes.

i've been hearing AP isn't as good as stoptech and endless

Stoptech cost half as much as endless, I wasn't sure if endless are worth 2x the price or not. Everyone that tracks says the stoptech do an excellent job and that's all you can expect brakes to do

I do a help teach a few SAE classes here and there and the gentleman who comes in to do the classrooms is very close to StopTech. They have WONDERFULY balanced systems.

Honestly, I could have gone either way between StopTech and Endless. I went with Endless because it was not as popular in the States and I wanted to (try) keep my Japanese theme.

It's my good friends lift/garage. It's pretty useful except you can't do exhaust work as the bottom is solid. It was around $2k years ago.. like 10+ years... and $$$ for snap on...

You can get better or different stuff for that kind of money now a days IMHO... see BendPaq. About $2300 for a 2 / 4 post lift. With those you can do just about whatever you like. The scissor (snap on) is great.. but as I said.. difficult to do any exhaust, underbody work.

That is a ridiculous setup! I am jealous and I don't think that my jaw will ever be able to go back to its original place until I am riding on the zeal functions with the arc exhaust...jdm baby!

Straight up "ballin outa control!"


If money was no object, I'd have Endless brakes sitting on all four corners of my Z. Awesome choice.

Whenever I hear Zeal or Endless I think of the N1 endurance or JGTC cars...definitely worthy.

I'm sure Stoptechs are just as efficient, but if all of us purchased with the strictly "bang for buck" mentality, we'd be driving something less attractive than the Z.

Beautiful setup, I envy you.

Thanks!

Just the limited '05 Te37 Ti. GM. No mag. Red/ cf center caps that were complimentary with the wheels. I didn't think I'd like the Red w/ cf, but it offsets things nicely IMHO.

LOL.. def. out of control

Thanks for the compliments! I love the Endless setup.. VERY nice.. Perfect , yes Perfect pedal feel.

People were gettin' on me because I didn't put a turbo charger or 2 on here instead.. But I just don't want or need more power yet. 3.917 and clutch/fw coming up to complete the set of modifications to date. I've got other things that go pshst anywho..

I stated doing this car bang for buck, as money would allow. But things changed and I wanted different things than Greddy and JWT. Good stuff but certainly not rare.

Enter ARC, Endless & Zeal. Sure everyone has volks, but I have thought TE37's and GT-7's looks bad **** on the Z33. I decided to go with the 37's. Ti. GM was in stock.

I will update the website and put up videos & more pics as time allows. I've been busy keeping up with things lately..

Thanks to everyone who's helped me!! Your names are proudly displayed on the website! Reviews and much more coming soon! All comments welcome.
