[QUOTE="KHsonic03, post: 382033, member: 8957"] I fully agree with you. You cannot judge a brake by simply looking at it, and the whole subject of braking is much more complicated than I probably realize. I actually spent a great deal of time tonight reading about braking, and have learned quite a bit just from that. I also retract my statement about 14" brakes not being worth it, because there are many more factors to take into consideration than just unsprung weight and rotating mass, such as heat dissipation and heat sink. I guess it really comes down to your application on what kind of pad/kit/rotor you should go with. I need to do more research before I make my decision. I guess my original point was in regards to the Brembo 2000 Cobra R kit. I was originally going to go with it because of its compatibility with our vehicles, but when I saw the Wilwood kit for $100 more, I didn't understand why the prices were so similar(I still don't). I still would like to upgrade my brakes, it is just a matter of how/what/why. [/QUOTE]
