It depends what you mean by expensive. Those pictures are showing top-level, professional motorsports calipers. Since losing usually costs a lot more than winning, those end up being darn cheap!

Let's just say that if something new were developed for street/track day cars, the price would naturally have to be in line with what people are generally willing to pay. We don't get too many requests for $30k brakes for a 370Z, so I don't think we will be going there any time soon. But that doesn't mean we can't come up with something in a reasonable price range that could blow your hair back!

I love that first line about winning, I am definitely saving that for future reference! One thing I have always admired is how you offer advice with no BS or product pushing, plus you have a huge amount of know how and it shows.

Those calipers posted are pure sex.
