yah, that's a good idea.

wat is the braking distance for the base brakes from 60mph?

in comparison, akebono's are like 112ft, right?

I'm definitely replacing my brakes at some point, but being stingy, I'm gonna wait until I wear them down. But yeah, braking distance is fairly iffy for the Z on base brakes.

I thought the braking distance was roughly the same. The only difference was really a result of the better tires on the Sport package cars.

Though after 3-5 really hard stops then the difference between braking distances would start to grow exponentially.
