Some even think it's about the "VTEC, YO!" eh Stig!

And even more surprising, no-one has questioned why you are fitting the VXR brakes and not APs...! I didn't think the stock VXR brakes were too shabby when I took my test drive in a silver 05 plate 5.7 VXR, but then the dealer was in the passenger seat, it was wet, and I didn't want to look like an eejit. Some days I think the stock stoppers on my V70R are great, and other days I think someone's sneaked a lump of wood under the pedal. I have 2-piece slotted 330mm rotors and some Porsche 993TT Brembo stoppers sitting on my shelf waiting some free time... Where does it all go?

[stigmundfreud]

the vxr brakes are a great bargain upgrade, next time though I might (if its kept) look at custom rotars and pistons and imagine it will still cost less than AP's

[the_ferret82]

Let me just confirm that the VXR brakes are much better than the standard CV8 brakes. you notice one hell of a difference epically with the pads form the big fish.
