| I'm aware our cars, most cars have an interior proportioning valve. I noted it with the AZ kit as a mater of fact. I believe in simplicity on my Z its just one more thing that is added. -The AZZC front BBK does not come with an additional proportioning valve. It is a separate piece of gear sold separately. It is not needed. Brake fade increased or decreased has a direct affect on stopping distance and handling of the car. Yes they are not bought specifically to stop quicker or in shorter distance, thank you for the clarification. -Um yeah, that's why it is called brake FADE genius. You dont decrease brake fade, you eliminate it. ANY brake fade is bad, and leads to more unless you start letting up while lapping. Pedal feel I'm referring to is in comparison to a stock pedal feel when a brake is applied under heavy and frequent load for a prolonged period of time (I should of noted this in the op). This feeling I related to the AP kit being made FOR the Z and the Wilwood kit being adapted TO the Z by design, maybe I'm wrong. No I did not track both brake kits I did however track the z with the AP kit. Have you lapped with the AP kit or are you comparing only to the Wilwood kit? -I cant comment on pedal feel because I do not lap with AP brakes and there is more than one AP Racing setup out there for people to use. A change in pedal feel results in changing things like piston diameters, BMC diameters, and other areas of structural flexibility and rigidity in the system like calipers and brake lines. If you already have SS braided lines and you get a kit that retains identical piston area, then you should notice no change in feel unless the caliper is more or less structurally stiff. This is not going to be a problem with any of the top brake manufacturers out there. Again, if you are using BBK for the street, then any of them will suffice, and if retaining the same "pedal feel" is the concern, then you should find the kit with calipers that have the same piston area as stock.
