Wonderful theory, and all that.....mucho blather and obviously, somebody took the time to well-research this topic -but I call the original article because, all those figures and drivel later, my car stops way, way better and more consistently now than with the stock brakes...

Awesome thread by the way.

I've enjoyed the thread. Looks like it was created right around when i first joined. didn't visit much then. . .but I'm glad it got Bumped. It's given me new questions with which I can approach my braking improvements armed with, ready to get the most bang for my buck. BTW, anyone know the piston dia. of the Q45 calipers? Maybe I can do a little mixing with matt's kit and see if i can come up with something suitable.

But is it true, and please correct me if i'm wrong that 02' and up maxima has something called electronic brake-force distribution. so if there is weight in the car, doesnt that mean the car will brake evenly so that it wont do a nose dive, or am i completely off topic???

trust me... would only add to the problem at the limits.. ive swung out on ksports @ no more than 40mph w/o hitting the brakes at all...
