Ok, any sedan owners who upgraded their brakes want to sell me their old set? That way I can jump in on this deal.
Best,
Chris

My calipers are with Mike at this moment, here is a picture that he sent me. I am very excited to get these back and get them installed. I have not driven a G with the sport brakes but I have heard that it is quite the upgrade

read the thread, he has one instock. If we get five buyers, he will paint the one he has the way whomever pays first wants then ship it to him or her, once you get them you swap them out and send them yours so there is no down time. Now he has a set for the next person and so on

I have the stock brakes on my G37x sedan and purchased the Akebono kit online. I have not installed the Akebono kit yet so all I had to do was send the new calipers to Mike, no need for an exchange. If this group buy thread had started one week earlier I would have waited and saved $50, oh well.

What if we don't have the Akebono's? (2ng gen G35 sedan) I mean instead of buying them and ship them over, Can't he buy new ones and work his magic on them instead?
