That's for as many stops as you want.

Btw, you still have 4 pots but they are now gold coloured.

As soon as i made the first brake with them on i could feel a difference, they felt stronger and had much better bite.

Had a good 10 minute fang with heaps of hard variable braking and the best i could do was get heaps of smoke coming from them. This was is brand new castrol response brake fluid, brand new dba4000's and unknown pads, but most likely the oem brembo pads.

Maybe it's just me but they feel heaps heaps better than wrx calipers, can definitely brake harder but maybe i just had a bad pad choice last time? I'm not saying they were shit, they were decent .. but the brembo's feel strong.

I drove my sister's evo 7 the other day and i must say the Brembo's feel pretty good, they stop pretty well considering i went around the hills.
The wrx ones are decent, but i have to wait to get the DBA rotors/pads and braided lines, hopefully the result will be on par with the evo brembo's.
