Maybe they are not installed right then. After I had mine installed the car felt totally different. Night and day. Car is much more rigid, and feels solid. I cannot express how great a mod they were. No performance gains, but overall a much needed mod.

Haha no, but you must not be able to feel a difference between your car and a pullied cobra. lol you must not have put your SFC's on right since you didnt feel the difference.

The other thing that could be done and very much justified and worth it would be SS braided lines, powerslot rotors or just OEM blanks and Hawk HPS pads...

I may wait and go that route

Maybe if you actually read and understood my first post you wouldn't sound like a special needs child running off on a wild tangent.

I said I didn't notice anything, big whoop. You have a vert, you NEED them.

OP doesn't have a pulled cobra either.

I gave my opinion from experience. Sorry you don't concur with me.

the more I think about it, the more I think I'll go with a little brake upgrade. Worth it more than the clutch parts/sfc's.

I have noticed on a hot day when pulling into the driveway and doing the final stop, I can hear and feel a little spongyness in the brakes.
