Thumbs up new brembo brakes and h&r sway bars installed !!!

decided to take it up a notch and put on the brembo brakes and h&r sway bars. since i do quite a bit of driving, i figured it would be worth it. and i must say, i'm glad i did it. the drive feels much better and stopping is at all, not an issue!! as always thanks to tom and arling at lucent motors for doin a fine job !!!!

I also did the brembo brakes and the brakes feel better and more responsive. What is your take on the Brembo Brakes versus the stock units?

The most noticeable difference is in pedal feel, especially in hard driving. Not to mention less rotational mass
