lol... that's a good idea.... too bad i didn't hide my turbo with a heat sheild or something They definitely look a lot better than the stock brakes did though. The rears even more so.

As far as my setup is concerned, I have 300zx 300 Aluminums in front with mystery pads and mystery x-drilled rotors (and clearcorners.com stainless brake lines) MC is stock.
I lock up my front wheels WAAAAY too easily, which is due to having narrow wheels and doo-doo tires.

Hmm... how does the pedal feel though??? When I first had the Q's on the pedal was noticeably mushier. It might've needed a better bleeding though....

I also have stock brakes in the rear with stainless lines. Adding stainless lines in the rear helped change the brake feel for the better. That, and changing the fluid!
I'll one day get some Axxis pads and once these rotors die, some slotted Brembos, and on that day I'll add a SHIM KIT so the damn things don't have such a tendency to squeal.
Stainless lines sound like a good idea. My prob is, I could get the stainless lines for the stock calipers and use them with the Q's, or I could wait untill I upgrade again to Z brakes.
