Any ideas on which upgrade kit to go with? Looked at them all and can't decide. Not all together in love with what is available. Also, I'm seeing that $3K is about the range for a set for the front. Is that what I should expect for a good set.

 

Stoptech has a 350z front upgrade kit for $1995. Very reputable.

 

reading thread after thread, visiting web site after web site, reading article after article, what I concluded is :

A) For regular street driving, the stock setup is fine. GO to better quality pads ($90) and maybe to better brake fluid.

B) If I had some money to burn, I would go with the Stoptech's all around, which would include better pads and new brake fluid.

That is my opinion but I continue reading to learn and be "enlightened".

 

I want to get the stoptech 13" front only kit. To me, it's the best balance of performance, price, and weight.

The 14" all around kit definitely looks awesome, but it's a bit too expensive for me.

The Brembo kits I have seen are very nice, but don't seem to offer any benefits over the Stoptech and are significantly more expensive.

All of the other kits don't have the same name recognition that Brembo has, or the engineering data and interaction that Stoptech has had. I really like all the data stoptech has, and their willingness to share it. Plus, I have yet to hear someone complain about their service or product.


-D'oh!
