I have to ask, I have the same brakes but have not had my car out yet.How did they feel does it stop as fast as it goes? hehe =)

 

LOL. They feel freaking awsome, it took me forever to finally get them bled but once you get the proportioning valve to be perfect and the pedal hard, it will stop on a dime, stoping fast is just as important as going fast.:o

 

 

Hey Ness, did you buy those ground controls from Silver Mine Motors? If so is the $400 on the site for all 4 corners?

 

I got them direct from GC, but im sure the price is for the pair, so you'll need a sets for front and a set for the rear, i think the price is $299 front and $299 rear.

Alright guys, small update. Went down to the local tuner shop to get my car tuned and see what power i was pushing to the wheels. The most we where able to get was 368hp and 368tq. The guy that was doing the tuning was kind of a bigger guy, so him sitting in there caused the wheel to rub on the fender. So everytime he did a pull the tire would rub on the outside, so much that it would cause it to smoke. So because of the rubbing the numbers were all over the place. I told him that i would raise the rear suspension and try again in a couple of days, he said we should be able to get better numbers out of it after raising the rear. Good for now, way better throttle response also.

Your car was looking good at the dyno shop. I did not get out of there until 11pm.
