Probably the way I set the eBrake. I should have taken them on a level surface.

Looks great! Now all you need is about 1.5" drop.

Nope not lowered yet. That is probably next on the list. Tein is at the top of the list.

I don't remember the percentage, but I don't like real dark tint, so I told them to make sure it is legal in Florida.

Looks good. I like the contrast of the red calipers with the blue too. Nice wheels as well.

Those brakes do not go with your car at all. You need to take them off ASAP and send them to me. Of course being the nice guy I am, I will pay for shipping since you were kind enough to donate them.

Now take that Z to the track and use those brakes for what they are really designed to do!

I went to Stoptech's website and the rotors were different. Which kit is this and how much was it if I may ask?

It is the 4 wheel Stoptech kit. You have option of red or black calipers and slotted (website) or drilled (mine) rotors. I went with red calipers and drilled rotors. You can also get more custom colored calipers if you don't mind waiting. I can't say what I paid for them, but Stoptech has the MSRP on their site.

Your car looks fantastic! I love the wheel combo with our brakes.

Make sure you bed them in properly for optimum performance. Here's a link to the procedure: http://www.stoptech.com/whitepapers/bedincontents.htm

Thanks for your support. Enjoy your brakes.

newtlicious,
Retail on our 4 wheel kit in red/slotted is $4495. With drilled rotors, total would be $4695. We can do silver, black calipers at no added cost. Yellow or blue would be +$100 per caliper. We are going to be offering gold paint in the near future. We also have a 4 wheel kit that is more geared towards racing/track use. The kitt uses the same front as this kit, but with a 2 piston rear and a slightly smaller/lighter rotor (same caliper that is on World Challenge race cars). Retail on that kit is $4495 as well.
