Full Brembo GT set is above AP.

Thanks guys. If I knew how to rep, I'd give you both one...

It looks like the kits save ~25 lbs of unsprung weight on the front alone. That's pretty sweet...

That makes sense... thanks!

And of course I never e-braked turns in my first car, an '86 Ford Taurus, in parking lots at night. The tricky thing about that car was that it had a foot brake, which...

Chris and Gary: thank you. I hope I didn't start anything, but the comments from both sides are pretty epic for a forum. You have outdone yourself.

I looks like the weight is just not a deciding...

Gary - I'm seriously impressed with the response (and I'm sure I'm not the only one!). Thanks for taking the time to write all that down. And you're the first one who actually put down full...

Exactly - I am stunned that the Z06 brakes have issues on track. I realize that's partly a result of all that horsepower, but still, I would indeed be pissed if I had to retrofit brakes for a car...

Thanks all for the posts. I'm an information junkie, so the more I have, the better I feel about what I end up getting.

To answer your questions, Gary, on my view of Brembo:

1. I'm a bit...

Yeah, it's basically between AP and StopTech. The only concern I have about the AP kit is that it was basically pieced together for this application - I haven't seen any testing on the resulting...
