I got price from a local dealer last week:

Wilwood: 14"-6pistons and 13"-4 pistons, $3900

StopTech:: 14"-6pistons and 13"-4 pistons, $5130

Plus installation....

the oil cooler itself is about $500, plus S&H to Canada, plus installation, sums up close to $1k...

That's what I mean on my earlier post...

I am thinking about getting the Wilwood BBK next season, since I am planning for street use thus I don't need StopTech...

So $4k-ish with installation will be fine....

But those guys are talking about tracking next season...

IF I am going to track, then I will need better brakes...

StopTech $5500 (with install) + $1k for oil-cooler

$6.5k in total compares to $4300(my original plan)

Track day will be only a once or twice a year thing for me since I can't give up my store/business and go to track(fun) all the time.

Seriously, I would love to track, cos it's so much fun, I used to do that in Mosport, it's a Blast!!!

But for extra $2.5k... mmm.....

Different, tracking is going around the circuit, like what Mr.SPOHN and Mr.Mt Tam I am always do.

Autocross is going through a snow-cones built parking lot course.

I don't really have a DD in the summer, cos the Audi will be used by my mom...

I mean, I like to track, but if I track, my current Z is not quite track ready... and I will have to spend that amount of money to have track-fun.... ugh....

Autocross was a blast (just riding was a rush) i cant wait to drive...i imagine the tracking too is a huge rush! Wow! I wish i had been born rich-fast cars are so fun and i'm almost too old to enjoy it fully!
