No trick. I just wanted to make sure and inform others what they need to be aware of if they do get it.

I am a stoptech distributor, and all I can say is that although this may seem like overkill to many people it is the best kit you can buy for your car. Whether you have alot of horesepower or not. This will greatly improve the vehicles characteristics in any form of performance driving. All the kits stoptech makes are vigourously engineered to provide excellent performance all around. I have had their kits on 3 of my personal cars and if I xcan find a way to get this one to fit my 92 v6 I will. Thats how good they are. It seems like alot of money, but its money well spent for sure.

If anyone is interested in the kit feel free to ask and I will be certain to make it worth your while.

I was only going around 25 MPH and got hard on the brakes when I got cut off. I had about 30 feet or so to stop, but was still going about 5 MPH when we hit. I think I needed only about 3 more feet to have avoided this.
Hey Mikey21, take a look at this vid. Doesn't have much to do with you, but maybe one of the best Public service commercials ever for car enthustiasts, no?

Yeah, it's still available. Saw it recently at a website I just happened to be browsing through and in stock. Unfortunately, I don't remember whiche site.

This kit looks nice but I think I can get away without the extra stopping power for $2g

I saw an upgrade kit for about $800 (for all 4 wheels) consisting of drilled/slotted rotors, ceramic pads and stainless steel brake lines. I think that would be the way to go for most users. I'll have to look for the site which is the same site I saw the big brake kit.
