    370z Akebono calipers vs 350z brembos

    in Performance

    Posted

    I think it's well worth the upgrade not that expensive either compared to going "proper" BBK like AP or Stoptech.

     

    I had issues with fading after a few sessions on track (this depends on the track obviously!) - Mine have been mostly a lot of corners and heavy braking etc. Though I'm pumping a bit more power then standard also put strain on the brakes. Though braking technique is also a reason, might need some work if you have brake fade with proper pads, discs, lines, fluid on Brembo. For me they just got to hot and as a result faded. the bigger sizes of the akebonos really help, only had a chance of one proper track session since I fitted them but really enjoyed them and zero fade!

     

    If staying brembo I'd look at some sort of brake ducts to keep the temps down.

    Guy in SE blew his engine on a newly bought Z , got a second hand one and that blew at startup... so currently he's looking for second hand forged block or parts to build his own, anyone ?

    Brexit 23rd June..?

    pretty decent/quick BBC interview with Lord Digby - former Director of the Confederation of British Industry https://www.facebook...56911747656293/

    If UK want EU market access they will have to pay for it, Norway pays more then a membership fee and its per capita so could be pricey, only thing is that EU want UK market access too so maybe its a golden opportunity. Think EUs attitude will be a painful swift exit to mark an example what happens if more countries think about leaving. Think its absurd that some bank institutions already has plans to move jobs from the financial centres abroad, using brexit as a scapegoat to lower cost.

    I would like to see UK leave actually just to see what happens since nobody really knows the effect it will have. Stay in the EU is a "safe" bet since you know already whats what. If you guys decide to leave I foresee madness on the financial markets, only due to nobody really know the ripple effects this might or might not have.

    Would be cool to see what happens if you guys leave I know that Sweden would be affected tradewise with yourselves but maybe just maybe we wouldnt have these caravan people coming here every summer setting up camps everywhere destroying nature and wrecking peoples homes...

     

    I do think UK would take a huge hit on trade in general with the US and Europe, pending when Trump becomes the next president maybe it will all change, you think? :p

     

    I also think the financial sector will become very turbulent which is not always a great idea and could have adverse economical effects both in and outside of the UK. Think that it could actually start another world recession! Which we're on the brink of anyway. Go vote and lets see what happens :) I looked my mortgages in for two years hoping it will all be over by then. :lol:

    I am also selling a 85K miles DE engine as well as that REV UP one Andid - PM me if interested. Thanks

    Fire a price on PM would be easier to swap DE non REVUP
