I saw another post that talked about the different stopping distances between stock brakes and a Willwood kit in an EK. Has anyone else done a before and after comparisson with their brake upgrade?

Between setups w/ similar pad compunds the difference would be negligible. Don't get a Willwood kit if you're just looking to stop faster, pads are a lot cheaper.

i agree. bigass brakes are for track. wasted on street.

Again, has anyone else done a before and after comparrison with their brake upgrade? If not I think it would be a good refernce point to do some testing on stock cars, cars with different pads, and cars with brake upgrades.

I dunno about a true comparison but from driving the car befor and after is amazing! (I have a full civic Si rear disk and GSR fronts) I think it brakes better then my R! the only problem I had was some massive brake fade when I took it to the track and i have AEM pads on both (crossdrilled rotors on the R)

If you can already lock the brakes with a particular setup, upgrading will not decrease stopping distances.
