I was close to pulling the trigger on these but I don't know enough about this company and the 8pot/6Pot is probably overkill for my garage queen. I'm just about to send my cash for some OEM Brembos... Should I pony up the extra dollars and rock these bad boys.

Imagine yourself 6 months from now. You walk into your garage...

with the Brembos...at best, you might even notice them.

With these, you'll grin and think to yourself "f*** yeah."

What's that worth to you?

I know they will look great but the Brembo brand is a proven product. I've been struggling to find any reviews/feedback on D2. Can anyone chime in.

if it helps, i had oem brembos with endless pads, stainless lines, authentic brembo gold zinc rotors with ate superblue flud, this kit stops harder even during dailly driving. i dont get brake fade with this set up in the summer and it's also lighter than the oem brembos so less unsprung weight on each corner. i dont race my car or drive it hard to even benefit from a big brake kit but my initial bite is better than oem brembos.

I don't understand your comment given that you're original asking price for your Brembo's was $1600.

To be honest there is not a lot of information/feedback/reviews on D2 brakes which is why I think no one has jumped on these.

BTW - the op is a great guy and has responded to my pm's in a very efficient manner.

Lol have to start the price somewhere for low ballers. Can't start low and go up on price. Can always go down- Dont understand that concept? Brembos are between $950-1500 for package. What's hard to understand? And these are not far from that price range.

Don't trust them/don't buy them. Easy as that I'd say.

Bump

yeah i know. IMHO, brembos are worth no more than 800 dollars. that's how much i sold mine for and that show much i feel like they should be worth. small rotors but good pad choices. just not good enough for when i bought 19 wheels. good for smaller wheels though. akebonos seems like a better upgrade. if it wasn't for such ugly calipers, i prob would of gotten that to save money.

4500 kit, with 8k miles for 1899 shipped, apparently that's too much, lol. what people forget is that i shipping is 250-300 on this. then people want me to pay the paypal fees. i basically get about 1400 in my pockets for this. The Zs resale value is gone down the drain and is left with kids with minimum waged jobs , i literally got an offer for 700 shipped to cali. sad really.

Dude your price is GREAT. It's just very tough right now. Good BBK setups and wheels are harder to sell.
