'12 G37XS sedan no Akebono BBK?
#16
I am wrong. The picture shown is probably the Sport 6MT. Somehow I always thought 6MT is available in coupe only.
I like the sports package because I test drove the non-sports side by side and I actually liked the sports seat better.

I bought the "S" package because I liked the front end, sports seats, 18" wheels/tires (I actually like them fine) and paddle shifters better than the standard items. Plus, the sports package costs very little on the x models.

Ditto! "S" is just icing on the cake for the sedan.

you can get zinc coated stoptech rotors to prevent rusting or you can paint them yourself as well with high temp ones.

You mention there is less than 10mm of clearing space between your stock 18' wheel and the BBK, any issue so far?

I am going after the looks of the calipers when I have them painted red. I don't race so I am not after braking power. One thing make it more difficult to pull the trigger on BBK is I still haven't had confirm on whether or not it will clear the stock 18' rims

Not to be argumentative about your automotive values, that's personal. And by your own admission, you're priority with the brakes is on appearance. That's fine, I suppose.
But the oft-repeated phrase, "I don't race, so blah blah blah doesn't matter" is complete and total BS. If you actually put a BBK on your G, you will love the way it brakes, regardless how you drive.
So you've got that to look forward to.
