Message The testing was conducted using a '90 Z32 TT at California Motor Speedway last Friday

here are the results ....

60mph - 0mph
stock = 120.8'
Stoptech = 113.2
7.6' shorter

80mph-0mph
stock = 219.6'
Stoptech = 204.4'
15.2' shorter

100mph-0mph
stock = 339.65'
Stoptech = 323.00'
16.65 shorter

The braking improvement is very dramatic when you consider that the improvement most kits generate in a 60-0 stop is only about 1-2 feet with any noticable improvements at higher speeds. The stock brakes did their usual fade thing and distances increased dramtically but, the Stoptech kit stopped consistantly at all speeds throughout the testing procedures and showed no signs of fading.

Thought you would like to know
