I love to go to the strip adrenaline rush like few others for me, I usually go to a little grass roots eighth mile about once a month and I got a number I'm always trying to beet, I just can't see myself doing mods to hurt the balance of this car. I bought it as much for the great brakes and handling as for the straight line speed and yeah huge turbo and hardcore are slightly excessive terms to describe your car but it still looks good and deserves votes

You can still run slicks with the brembos and I guarantee you'd beat your time. I mean I didn't have to swap to LS calipers, buy the 10" rotors and have them machined to accept the LNF hubs. But it's different and that's what I like to do. To me unless you track the car regularly brembos are overkill. If you just daily drive it and you're a safe driver on the road there's no need for anything larger than the LSJ brakes. Not talking directly to you, but people have asked me, "why are you risking rear ending someone or lessening your braking abilities just to fit 13" wheels?".. Well if me running LS brakes is unsafe or doesn't function well i'm pretty sure they wouldn't have even put them on the car in the first place hahah. It'll stop just fine.

It's coming out

It's not broken. I'm pulling it to make sure my tob is still good. But i'm not going to be putting it back in just for it to break and have to pull it again.

It's seen multiple 500+whp dynos. Runs on the street. Tons of runs at the track. NLS. WOT launching.. It's been put through it's paces that's for sure.
