New toy for Christmas

HEHE!!



http://www.racingbrake.com/RX8_FRONT...p/2015-351.htm

I am on a quest to shed the poundage on the 8 and here is my first attempt. I got only the front ones but will soon have the rears as well.

14.1 lbs each

I CAN'T WAIT TILL THEY ARE DELIVERED!

Talk to Rishie (AutoRnD) in the vendor forum...I believe he is having a December discount on these. He will take care of you.

I think my biggest selling point to go with these were the weight savings. No other brand posted the weight of there setups and most are only 1pc.
