In the brake video, what brakes are they replacing? V6 or the Brembos? And are these brakes supposed to be even better then 4 piston Brembos. I wish they would just let you upgrade to the Brembos if you're getting the V6.

Those are for sure upgrades even for the stock 4 piston brembos. These things are HUGE!

Looked like it went on there with no other changes. Pretty simple rotor/caliper change. They do look giagantic. I was wondering if they removed the V6 brake parts though. They looked kinda small. And also this means the big brake kit is available for all the models which would be nice since the stock V6 brakes are single piston. I haven't had those since my '96 camaro days. I liked the upgrade to dual piston and bigger rotor when I got my '00 Z.

As far as the brakes go...those really look like the 6 piston calipers from the ZO6. I think they did change the brackets on the back, but other than that, looks like an easy swap. I mean it took them less then like 4-5 minutes. And for the record I want the red calipers whether thay are the Brembos or the 6 pistons.

Looks are subjective for sure .. but IMO . they could have done that a LOT better .. I don't like the looks of it .

i dont understand what you are complaining about. i think the exhaust looks classy on the lexus and nothing like the system on the camaro. blended exhaust is a nice look and its the bumper that sets it from the rest.
