If anyone could provide conclusive proof on why the 6-piston setup is better for driving to go get groceries, I'm TOTALLY on board :-p

Don't you mean, weekend warrior and weekday driver?

Either way, there are far more effective upgrades to do than that if you want to turn her track ready. Not to mention, the $6000 for the CHEAPEST set (according to Project Mu Co., Ltd. - BRAKE CALIPER - RACING CALIPER 6Pistons) is laughable. Get some AP racing brakes for a fraction of the cost and get race-proven performance.

Yes, I am a Jew, and yes, I think JDM prices are f-ing stupid.

Which can load up its track tires into its own trunk with all tools, and still have room to spare :)

Oh yeah, and still smoke your car around a track with the gobs of power it has to play with :-p

Image means nothing when your ****'s getting pushed in by a crapbox truck, or a grocery getter. You're just staring at taillights, in the end lol

True, that's a POS, but it's luckily not a Cadillac. In it's day, it would have been chosen first.

If it makes you feel better, you can throw practically the same motor into a Corvette and call it a ZR1?

Fast is fast, man - I don't care what badge is on it in the end. I don't discriminate against brands when they can put out a solid product lol. Hell I was the biggest Ford hater out there, but I can admit the Moosestang is a great product. Certainly wouldn't BUY it though...

That's fine. I just think that Cadillac, along with Dodge as a brand just put out uglier and uglier cars. Power is a motor, drivetrain, etc. And I'll give a motor the credit it's due, yeah that car might be fast, but its ugly as fuuu. Just like a Bugotti, yeah it's fast once it gets its momentum going, but it is nowhere near a McLaren in the looks dept. And that's important to me. I want something that looks just as good as how fast it goes. But that's just my :twocents:

Farm truck is awesome.

That way when you're so afraid to race your car for fear of damaging your pretty parts, you can get a beater 370 to track! lol

Or just put it in a giant hamster wheel to race around the track :-p

Because sometimes more expensive isn't always better. And just because you have the money to do it, isn't a good enough reason To do it.

(I know, crazy coming from me of all peoples) :rolleyes:
