Message	I imagine the caliper is close to the same weight. Maintaining overall weight or even a possible loss of weight PLUS the awesome stopping performance makes the AZ Z car kit (and other similar kits) a no-brainer. Fashion is the only explanation I can think of for wanting to switch to heavier equipment. "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism", they will adopt every principle of our socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without ever knowing how it happened.... I no longer need to run on the Socialist Party ticket because the Democrat Party has now adopted our platform." --Norman Thomas, 1944 Socialist Party Presidential Candidate "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." --Winston Churchill
