Do you have very sticky tires? Why are you wanting to upgrade something you have no clue over why it needs upgrading in the first place. A bigger set of brakes will not make the car stop any faster in the street , a good set of tires will. You will prob never experience brake fade in the street nor do you need the huge braking force since your street tires prob will limit your ability to stop before your brakes do.

But if you want to throw your money away on something you dont need for the street go ahead, its your cash not ours.





Hey i powdered coated my 300zx brake upgrade and my stock s14 brakes and i dont think it looked cheesy!! Its not cheesy if you do it right. Which involves taking the calipers apart.

Pics of my coated calipers on my ex s14.5

Powder coated and spray painted are two different things. I would agree your S14 brakes look great. Nothing cheesy there.
