there good on price, my uncle just had his z32 worked on from there. they did all his a/c repair for $212. idr everything they did, but i do remember them repairing the, dryer,valve,condenser. They dont do shitty work either. oh ya, they have more cars at there house, they even have a s13 coupe, a 2+2 z32,and a VERY clean z31 for sale. z32 isnt ready yet though. My uncle bought his z32 there for $4k 2 years ago, and has had not one problem, except for the a/c. They do Great work, ad stand by it.

Same size rotor with some inexpensive brackets and Z33 Brembo rotors

full on track cars can take a lot more liberties with shit than a street car. bell bottom kits and crazy wheel fitment look cool sliding on a track, but when i want to drive to taco bus, im going to ruin all of that shit. so it just doesnt work for me. function over fashion.

Thats not the problem, its getting the Brembos and the parts.
Also 4-piston Brembos on my car > Z32 on a Z33 rotor. I've seen the pads for both and coverage, and I have driven both.
EDIT: And if you talking about the bracket diagram from Krinkov's thread on Zilvia, no that does not work.

I doubt the setups were close enough to properly compare, too many variables to make a fair comparison,
Heres the thread on the pad sizes https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/n...alipers-2.html
In reality, i'd bet you are splitting hairs on calling one or the other better, so i'll take the calipers i got fresh rebuilt for $180, over spending $400-500 on some that say "Brembo" and *might* work a hair better.

I don't think the Brembos are worth the money. Z-brakes are overkill as it is. I got the fronts for free so I put them on. I already had 5 lug. And a couple weeks ago I ran into the same problem as black zenki. Rear caliper locked up so I sourced these rear Z brakes. I think with with good aggressive pads and stainless lines, they will stop as good as anything. I have all the rear E brake assembly. How did ya'll get it to work?
