| The factory brakes sucked. I tried three different pads, installed Stillen rotors and never felt like the car had any really stopping power. With 500+ Hp I found myself playing more and more with the power and didn't feel comfortable with the cars stopping ability. The decision was made after a lady last minute decided to make a right turn in front of me, I hammered down on the brakes and the car kept getting closer and closer to her rear bumper no matter how hard I pressed on the brakes. My Infinity FX SUV had more feedback and stopping power! My friend has a 350Z and everytime I drove his car I wanted to steal his brakes! His stock brakes had more stopping power. The StopTech are amazing with the Axxis pads (which I put back on last night) besides with the silver calibers, wheels and paint on the car, I think the combination looks great.
