Because spoon doesn't make items for factory cars, not to mention that spoon is only a honda specific brand.

i'm not arguing which is better. just your logic made no sense. Now you're saying Spoon is made by Nissin, then it would probably be used on more jdm cars from factory compared to brembo's :p

Exactly my point.
kongfu, just because one type of brakes is better than the other, doesnt mean that they should be avoided altogether.
Its very misleading.

Have you tested both setup's?

Spoon calipers are good. But not worth the amount of $$$.

Yes, I have. If you guys wanna argue about it I will leave it as it is.

fastbrake replied to me that wilwood have a very limited brake pad range apart from there own brand. hawk is starting to make a pad. So wilwood is not the best choice for tract car prob ok for street as pads are not as critical

muilty piston big calipers require master cylinder upgrades,spoon is designed to work with factory set up,,this is a reason i am leaning towards the spoon,,

brembo needs 17 inch wheels ,,semi slicks to dear

i thought brake calipers are....hardly relevant to actual braking power , as opposed to brake pads and discs used. Meh thats just me.

who did the job for him . they might be good to talk to about what is possible on the 4 stud 4 x 100....there is to many people grinding bits and pieces to make brakes fit,,they are very important its a must to get it right...thats why it is so hard to find a wheel and brake package that is good,,,
