I think they run around 10 grand. I have seen a couple cars on the forum with them though. Best of the best there.

Do they require frequent overhauls being a race product?

Are these brakes ok for road and track use or only for competitions? Do they need particular maintenance? Do they need other modifications in brake sytem?

Thanks

they look good but I'm pretty sure no one that daily drive their evo is going to need something like that stock brembo's with some hawk pads and better rotors work just fine

Different kit entirely...

These are real race brakes...no dust boots on the pistons and no anti-rattle springs/clips for the pads so there is a fair amount of pad rattle. Yes, they need regular care and feeding, not "drive them and swap pads every 50k miles" style brakes.

The GT kit mentioned above is a better match if you have to have Brembo for your BBK fix.

For 90% of the Evo drivers out there, however, a good set of rotors and a pad that has a somewhat "happy medium" in temperature operating range and modulation will be more braking ability than they would ever need.
