Message	The reason is purly astetics.(yes i know i cant spell). Most people do this when upgrading the fronts with the 350Z brembo calipers and rotors, instead of having brembo up front and nissan in the back use the sti rears so that the calipers have matching brembo logo. a large amount of your brakeing is from the fronts. Like i said the rears are just for looks. If it doesn't make it faster, I'm not interested!
