Message	Absolutely NO ONE on this forum has experienced all of these brake kits. I've driven Z's with true Brembos (2 cars), Russells Wilwoods (2 cars), and Skyline upgrades (1 car), all on the track at racing speeds. (useing them for their designed purpose). ALL 3 performed their jobs very effectively with not a single noticable issue. I would get russells wilwoods because I can use stock wheels. Everything else being equal, it really comes down to what pad you outfit your brakes with. so what is it for you? price? performance? looks?
