1. Bite feel definitely better.
2. Can brake much later.
3. Takes a while to get used to cos bite is different from original.
4. Aesthetically, looks good!
The test is based on my own setup, with slotted Autoexe rotors and Autoexe steel braided brake hose. I have not tested them on stock rotors nor stock brake hoses. However i shld tink this is good.
Interested parties, contact Monster Garage for this modifications.

Hate to bump a dead thread, but where did this go? Any long term thoughts?
From what I've read, you're just looking at changing the calipers to the FD ones (and of course pads too). This makes sense, Mazda tends to use the same dimension ears on their brakes (I put FC 4-pots on a 1st gen because of this... took a little filing, but it worked very well).
What years FD? I've got a couple sets IIRC. I can check for the staggered piston sizes.
