The 8 piston looks nice but it's not the GTR Fred used to have the 8-piston GT kit and whilst excellent it's not quite the same

Truly amazing brakes. Truly.
Thanks for the info Sharky.

whoa wierd, anyhow those are quite a few pistons you got there.

Is there a point where the brakes overpower the grip...like can it be TOO easy to lock up the wheels (or in most cases, set the ABS off)?
