got my brakes done!

[speedminded]

never said that...spoon isn't the most expensive either...just merely saying that you get what you pay for.

lol ya, i don't know shit....now THAT is something to laugh at

Why would you quote what he said then proceed to take it out of context?

because he is an idiot

AAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAA....AAHAHAHAHAHA Coming from the king of retard wannabe's. Hows your big brake kit coming along Thats great.


I don't know everything...I have alot to learn. Originally i posted an opinion that i think that the spoons "look" the best out of the painted calipers.(only b/c most other aftermarket calipers are black i.e. Baer, Rotora, etc)That is all. Then you guys acted like i cared how much they cost...that was never an issue but you guys took it there.

"you get what you pay for" is more a hit to painting stock calipers. maybe i should have made myself more clear. sry for the confusion. LOL

My BBK came along great, just finished yesterday and everything went smoothly. My car now brakes 8937529875 times better thanks for asking.

What aftermarket calipers do you know about that aren't anodized or painted? The top 3 that I'm thinking about all are...along with your Spoons. That's where I was coming from.

It's not about braking better. You can brake better with a better set of pads. It's how much abuse the braking system can withhold and for how long before the pads get glazed and/or rotors warped. How good your brakes work depend on the tires otherwise bigger isn't always better.

You are correct, however he was saying how well his car BREAKS.

1) Me upgrading my brakes WAS about braking better. And of course you can brake better by simply adding pads, but I can brake a lot better by adding bigger calipers with bigger pistons with bigger rotors being squeezed by bigger pads right? exactly...

2) How good the brakes work depends on tires a lot, true. Everyone knows that. It also depends on the brakes...lol

Yes you are correct, but its kinda overkill and a "waste of money" just like spoon calipers, if you arent making WAY over stock power......

BTW u do have nice brakes tho

you need to understand that the brakes you took off the car were capable of locking up the tires, meaning they were able of providing more brake torque than the tires can actually make use of. THEREFORE, the big brake kit does exactly what speedminded said, resists fade, and dissapates heat better. it does not "brake better"

Hate to tell everyone that bigger brakes DO NOT brake better, period. it's all in your head. I've seen countless times where people have said the car braked better when they put on slotted/drilled rotors, etc. Do you know want to know the real secret to the better braking? I bet you changed that nasty ass brake fluid when you put your new brakes on didn't you? There's your secret

You just proved you know nothing about a cars braking system.

Bingo.

You need to understand that my car also does not have the stock 16's it came from factory with. Ever since I put my new and HEAVY 18's on my braking has dramatically decreased. WHen you increase unsprung weight acceleration and braking decrease. But now with my new setup, my car is capable of locking up the wheels...I tested it yesterday So yes you are now right that my brake can apply more braking torque that my tires can handle.

But my car still brakes better. If I would've braked my car last week from 60-0 it would've taken like 11 seconds(rough estimate) and say x amount of feet, now I guarantee it I would brake from 60-0 SUBSTANTIALLY faster as well as in a shorter distance. I call that braking better...
