Message Does anyone have any real world experience or concrete data on running a 13" brake rotor vs running a 14" Akebono brake setup? Stopping distance? Brake fade? Pedal effort?


Also they discuss the aluminum calipers are prone to warpage. I have noticed under heavy braking on a hot day and when I brake boost while roll racing that the steering wheels shakes violently. When I had my 1993 300zxtt that had the iron calipers I never remember having this problems.

Once the aluminum calipers "warp?" are they toast or do they warp back into their original shape?
