Yes, I upgraded my 4 piston 2 piece Brembo's with a 14 inch one piece rotor to a 6 piston monoblock floating system with a 2 piece drilled rotor and stainless steel lines. This system is not made to stop the car better, though it very well might do that. Rather it is designed to eliminate brake fade in all driving situations, including road racing, and to give the brakes a much better feel all while allowing the driver to better control them in all driving conditions.

To everyone, I will have pics tonight, sorry, gotta wash the cars first I will post up pricing after I get out of my morning meetings. Thanks!

because if you do live in southern california, its a bitch to find a car. a vast majority of dealers had their allocations fill up long ago.

Trick on cars with very good stock front brakes already is to keep the calipers from the front and move them to the rear with appropiately sized rotors.

Yeah just like in the other thread. Still ridiculously over-priced and unnecessary upgrade for the street. The stock Brembos are fine. Add steel braided brake lines if you want a tighter feel to the brake pedal and the stock Brembos are more than good for the street.

For $7+k you can get a CAI, headers, exhaust, tune, custom rims and get much more bang for your buck.
