Just a suggestion for anyone wondering, you can get a set of 4 piston Brembo calipers for front and back for around $500. These came stock on some of the Track and Grand Touring 350z trims, like on mine. Fairly cheap and bang for buck investment for what it gives you and definitely a big upgrade over the single piston calipers.

That English school needs to teach you all to say learned not leant. Although grammatically correct and accepted out of native English speaking countries, it just doesn't make sense. It is spelled like a contraction but isn't one. It's not learn not - it is learned. I hope you succeed well, English is such a common language so most native English speaking countries don't have a need to speak another language. As a result most of us aren't multilingual like you will be.

I love this series. I’m totally the low guy lol I love bang for buck. You guys should really use your objective results to illustrate the comparison in a percentage. For example the Wilwood brake kit cost 1000% more but only offered a 10% performance improvement (shown in 60-0 tests). There are other attributes like subjective opinions that will influence buying decisions but the % comparison is important.

It's brilliant that you guys are doing this (i'm and engineer / ok mechanic) A friend fitted dinner plate sized brembos on his car. They are amazing. However on another friends similar car with normal road use you cannot feel the difference. However under heavy track use the cheaper ones needed cool down time and the other car stayed out on track the whole session. It's all very interesting. Lets face it most people won't be hitting the track so the racing spec is overkill. But it's really nice to know that brake upgrades are one of the best things you can do to your car. (just not great for the person braking behind you) Great show, proving what we have been trying to tell people for years. However if you want to go balls to the wall amazing everything carry on. It's only money and if you love the look, express yourself with what you feel looks the best right? March to the beat of your own drum (disc) Keep up the super cool work and love the editing ! your video guy is doing a great job.

they put improved pads on the budget build. i wish they at least tried to find a cheap multi-piston caliper for the cheap car. $400 vs $4000 is pretty obvious, $2000 vs $4000 will be a bit more reasonable. but if there are no $2000 big brake + caliper kits available, i guess this is the only way to test.

Just my .02, if your vehicle is a track day car and not a race car, IMO it's not really worth it to get a big brake kit. Most of the increase in performance is in the pad material and rotor design. Also, flushing out your DOT-3 brake system with DOT-4 fluid and replacing the rubber end lines with braided stainless gets rid of most of the fade associated with rubber lines balooning. Will the big brake kit be better than a brake upgrade it? Of course. More contact surface area = more available friction for a given coefficient of friction. IMPORTANT DISTICTION: the big brake kit seen in this video is a FLOATING ROTOR setup, which is arguably much better than a standard rotor because the rotor doesn't dissipate heat into the hub as quickly. Heat in the hub leads to premature wear on you hub/spindle bearings. Do you NEED the big brake kit? Unless your car weighs more than 3500 lbs and has to brake after continuous high-speed sections, probably not. Getting a pad with a better coefficient of friction and a rotor with better heat dissipation capabilities will help you out much more than you think. Last caveat: I've ran into issues with cross-drilled rotors cracking before, which is why I go for slotted rotors exclusively now. You can do whatever you desire; just thought I'd throw that little tidbit out here in case someone was wondering. Edit: I say this because although big brake kits are better performers, it's worthwhile to be cost-conscious when setting up a vehicle for the track. Less money spent on a brake system leaves more money for more trackdays. source: results of modification on my own IS250 (not a 'fast' car, but a fun car to drive fast.)
