Message	Did the cpark kit: Brembo slotted rotors, Technafit steel braided lines, Axxis Ultimate pads; skipped the Ate Super Blue brake fluid for Motorcraft High Performance DOT 3 (550F dry boiling point). Added the 300 Degree master brake cylinder brace. The change in braking feel is not subtle. Not a trace of shudder or wobble, and I have yet to feel again that pulse quickening need to stand on the pedal. This is a definite performance improvement in what seems the car's weakest point, and I strongly recommend it. I got brake hardware kits (Courtesy Nissan) and replaced the shims with new too. I'd skip the black zinc coating on the rotors. It's pretty messy as the pads wear it off and I don't know how much protection it adds where it doesn't wear off. "You realize, of course, that the purchase price is incidental."
