    I can’t thank you enough for this video!!
    They quit making the brakes for my V3 STI RA. So instead of trying to get replacements I wanted to just get newer STI 6 pistons.
    Turns out these are about $3900 cheaper 😂😂

      @@ERICSDIYGARAGE I honestly did not see a major difference from my oem brembos.
      I ended up going back to oem brembos and z1 2 piece rotors which helped me shave weight upfront which was a plus along side better fluid and pads which made a world of a difference compared to the 18z kit.
      The 370z rotors are massive compared to brembo rotors and very heavy aswell.
      Unless you get 2 piece rotors to offset the weight your adding I didn't see it being worth it for my z that I want to eventually track and take it on the twisties.
      I'm in the process of putting them on my other Z however that's more of a looker haha.
      Not bashing the the 18z-17z brakes as they look great but overall I would definitely stick to oem brembos for ease of installation, no modifications needed and overall great kit for a N/A Z or G

    Eric, what is the selection of full track pads for the 17z or 18z calipers? I'm running the oem brembos on my 06 350z with Cobalt XR-2 race pads. They are incredible but I want to know what the options are on race pads for 17/18z calipers since they came on SUVs. I own a 13 Cayenne Diesel and it comes with 18z calipers. I can't find race pads for this caliper.

  • @DEATHWISHVQ
    @DEATHWISHVQ 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    so which caliper would you best recommend for stopping power? I though to upgrade to the z1 akebono package but $2k is too expensive when I can buy used G35 brembos that might have the same stopping power, I do want to save weight too, I might not get the best of both worlds, are the G35 brembos heavy? I’m just tired of having these small stock calipers I always have to push the pedal to the floor to stop cause how long it takes to completely stop and I dislike it never feel comfortable doing pulls in these.

    • @ERICSDIYGARAGE
      @ERICSDIYGARAGE  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My favorite are the g35/350z brembos the akebono calipers and rotors are way too heavy. Brembo make superior calipers in my opinion.
