Message pedal feel on the street and a very noticeable improvement in comfort. The loss of weight vs stock rotors was big on the stock suspension. The rotors/pad used surface area is very good, I didn't like the 350z adapters because there is quite a bit unused pad/rotor area and I don't think the .2" larger 350z rotor does anything over the wilwood rotor with street tires and pads. In addition, the offset is such that they won't fit on some aftermarket or stock wheels. My few suggestions - mattz should include some installation pics like yours..... I had to figure out how to get the last brake line bracket around the adapter, mattz said that it could have been left in. Test fit the rotor hat's holes because there are mutliple bolt patterns, I think 1 other pattern fits but is loose. Check the safety wire on the rotor bolts. Try making "v" shaped relief cuts to bend the dust shield back. If you don't have snips, scoring the shield with a dremel and then bending back and forth will snap it off (and dremeling the jagged edges will prevent a nasty cut later).
