Wow, loving the looks of this kit

 

Details?

 

looks nice! any details?

 

details: they cost too much

 

 

Translated from the site:

Kit inlcudes:
(2) 6-pot calipers
(2) 2-piece rotors (355mm)
(2) Brake pads for each caliper
(2) Brake Lines
(2) Brackets
Hardware

The kit is very rigid and made from lightweight forged aluminum. The special piston design prevents uneven pad wear. The rotors are two peice floating type, 355 mm in diameter.

Price: 299,000 Yen or $2741.00

 

too much? thats not any more than stoptech or brembo.. i want these

 

cheaper than endless brakes, too.

actually it's not too bad of a price.

 

i really like the way our aftermarket is beginning to pan out

 

the 14" front stoptech kit sells for $2600 and is only a 4 piston caliper.

compared to the central 20 kit, $2700 and you're getting a 6 piston caliper.

and of course you get that jdm bling :P

not a bad deal at all

 

But are they balanced to our car, blah blah blah. There are a lot of people who make calipers and rotors and that doesnt mean they are the best setup/price for our car.

i dont know.. specs will come out eventually i think

 

4 is not necessarily better than 6. The equation is much more complex than this.

 

Hrm... they kinda look like the Endless brakes. Must... find... answers...

 

you should just give me your brakes!

 

I like my Endless brakes, thank you.

 

judging from the specs and pics, i believe they are endless brakes.

 

Some good points brought up in this post...are these just calipers from another application thrown on the Z? What implications does this have on the front to rear brake bias? My guess is that they will have a heavy front bias. They'll feel like they have a lot of bite, but may not be using the rear brakes to their full potential. This is just a hunch...many swaps that aren't specifically matched to a stock car tend to have a heavy front bias, but who knows?

6 piston calipers don't have any inherent superiority over a 4 piston caliper. What really matters is the size of the pistons in the caliper. A 6 piston tends to have more surface area on the pad, so it doesn't wear as quickly...that's the only general assumption you can make without knowing specifics of piston bores, etc.

 

Endless kit 6 pot in front 4 pot in back = heaven
