i'm not saying its a great choice, but some of the stuff in this thread is just ridiculous. this is a perfectly reasonable upgrade for the average enthusiast like myself who does only a few DE's days a summer and the rest is auto-x and street driving.
On a safe road, try doing a full ABS panic stop. You might surprise yourself. Your average production car will fade its brakes at the end of a single 60-0 stop. No joke.
