Now we get some pics! How do you like them Steve? I think the brakes were one of the best mods i did! What size did you go with and what pads are you running?

These brakes are fabulous. I do really prefer the balance with the Maxima rears. The whole brake systems seems to be working now. Even with just the fronts it felt like you could never overdue these brakes and the feel is great. You can really sense right before the wheel is going to lock. Some people on the forum have said that if you can lock your brakes at 60mpn (or whatever) that you don't need bigger brakes. That is only part of the story becuase with these things you have so much better control then with the stock brakes. I am running the Wilwood Poly D pads in the front and stock BAP GEON pads in the back. I still don't have the rear stainless lines on yet becuase I have been working on the VE swap and aftermath. Pedal travel is still slightly better then stock even with the bigger rears and no rear stainless. I see no reason to get the Altima MC. If my oem wears out I may get it bored to 3/4 inchs instead of the stock 5/8. I still need to try these things at the track for 20 minutes to see what the brake balance is like once everything is really freaking hot. Can't wait to find out.
Best mod??? In the last 4 months I have done the Brakes, Quaife and a VE. It would be a tough choice.

Very nice Steve! I've been chatting back and forth with Brian there at Fastbrakes, and I'm waiting for their production of the SE 12" kit for my ride. I already have a set of SMC brake lines for the kit. Awesome review. ;)

Cool he is making some 12 inch ones for the B15. Thats what you B15'ers needed. What do you all do for the rears. Do maxima rears bolt up or are the B15 rears a good size already (11 inchs or so).

Hmm, I believe the rears are good to go. I'm probably just going to upgrade the rotors. I know I can get more info at B15sentra.net about the rears and what's compatable. It was the topic of discussion a few months back. As soon as he's done with the 12" kit, it's mine. ;)
