New wheels and 6 piston brembos
I had a lot of downtime b/c of my wheels always being delivered to the house damaged but once I go through all that I was able to get brembos installed and boy I love how the fill out the inner wheel. Plus the stopping power I now have is much better over stock. I always felt like my stock brakes seem to fade a bit. I even install stainless steal lines but that really didn't do much. Here are some picks

Nice, I went with the 4 pistons because of weight, but balanced it out by putting '13 GT500 rear rotors on it, 13.8" Those really balance the look of the car and help a lot in braking, of course for drag racing those are not an option.

Those wheels look very nice on your car. Usually I'm not a fan of the black paint it, makes the spokes look very thin. Although you pulled that off well and they and your car look very, very good. Sorry to hear about your delivery mishaps. Those brakes are on my list too. They seem quintessential for the S197. Which pads did you go with?

Thanks and for the life of me i can't remember what the brake pads were. I couldn't take my eyes off the calipers. The kit does come with everything including pads. I purchased from LMR and it was the front brake kit. I just checked their website and they still don't have that back in stock and I have had them for awhile now. The mishaps with ordering wheels was a lesson learned. Do not have wheels and tires mounted by the company thats going to ship them to you. Have them ship seperate. Oh well. Its over with and I'm happy.
