36 pounds isn't that bad in the grand scheme of things. You end up with a braking package that is more capable overall.

I cannot believe that these calipers & rotors haven't sold already. I wished that I had seen these sooner, before I purchased mine, as the grey is more appealing to me than the gold that I purchased. Besides it would have been cheaper as it's an entire kit, instead of piecing mine together.

Total agreement regarding silver. This color looks banger with any color. Not loud, not saying look at me... just tastefully good style ![]() |

Found this video about unsprung weight a real eye opener and very informative. Based on hard data, weight penalty not even close to having the negative effect we might all guess. Especially considering most owners spend more time on street than true dedicated track cars. This data makes my BBK even more compelling - great performance and great looking. And I appreciate all your commentary. If you are ever passing through Chicago, hit me up because a couple beers are on me. ![]() |

Man, this video was super informative! It really sheds light on unsprung mass and wheel/tire weights, and it's also helpful when considering the weight of your brakes. If I ever find myself back in Chicago, I will definitely look you up.

Here’s another highly informative video about Porsche brakes, which also provides valuable insights into brakes and calipers in general.
