Those are MSRP prices listed. You could easily get a Stoptech kit for a little more than what Megan retails for. I'm assuming you can get Megan's for under $3k likewise.

Thanks again! Last question, can you give more details on this kit such as 6/4 pot, size of the rotor 14" or 13" and part # of this exact kit Scott using on his z. I think I just found my next purchase.

I would say 18s to be safe, but I am sure there are 17s that will fit, and some that will not. People have fit some 17s over the 14" Stoptechs and Rotoras before.

We know they fit over 18" stock 06+ Z rims. HOWEVER, I believe there was clearance issues with the spokes and required a spacer. 17's should work, but the offset and spoke clearance need to be addressed.

FYI, I JUST got off the phone with the manager, my sponsor, and friend of Megan Racing. I got the ok from them to do a group buy on the complete Megan Racing big brake kit so, I will start a new thread on that, and link you guys to it.

Good, I was about to pull the trigger and get a full set from my local shop. Maybe I can get a better deal with the group buy!

Is "Megan" machined in the caliper or is it a sticker?

AP Racing... http://www.apracing.com/car/site.htm

The bolts I am talking about are the ones on the 2 piece rotors that hold the rotor to the hat (i.e. the black part of the rotor to the silver part).
