thanks for the comments guys.. after nearly 1 month of ownership.. here are some additional good and bad:
1. Unlike many large disc setups. It does not shake or vibrate when braking at high speeds (120 mph+)
2. The calipers are not painted so its not really easy to clean.
3. It doesnt produce any noise under most driving conditions. However, expect to hear mechanical sounds from time to time when first shift into drive or reverse from a stop.
4. Car stops very well. I will say the stoping is similar to the BREMBO GT that my friend has for his evo but that is a lighter car. What its differerent is the brake feel and consistency. The stock padel feel is quite soft and does fade with a few hot laps. You wont get any of these with the IMPUL.
5. The biggest gain from this system is the weight saving. The front feels very precise and the car is now leaning towards netural and oversteer. With a set of ADVAN AD07 i shall be able to push further on the track. I have the crappy T1R now and its just sliding like a soap. The steering now feels very senstive to imputs and also much reponsive.
