Alcon front brake kit

[Johnny@Apollo-Optics]

Well no ******* shit, but comparing a performance brake setup that costs 10x more than a pad and rotor upgrade to the stock brakes isn't exactly fair.

Buying my alcons only makes it 5x the cost. .

But real talk, I dont have scientific data on this, idk if anyone does. But I can say myself and others I know had hawx or powerstop set ups before alcons and we all agree the alcons are superior in brake distance and feel. By how much, I dont know and I wouldnt purposely mislead anybody but its there.

I saw nothing unfair about test. It was what it was. An expensive kit that performed very well in comparison to stock.

Weren't you taught that life isn't fair? JFC what do you want, every rotor/pad available out there to be tested against the alcons? Let me get right on that...

Same brackets and all?

Yes. The brackets are based off the caliper. The bracket to spindle holes did not change on the Gen 1/2.
