not sure where Nopi is based but I ordered mine from collettimotorsports in Ohio and I live in CA.. i got them in about 5 days I think and this was after 9/11 so I'm sure UPS was taking longer because they were supposedly scanning packages for bombs or whatever...
I've had the Brembo blanks for about a year and along w/ my Hawk pads they are great... make sure you torque down your lugs evenly to 80 ft-lbs and don't let some "mechanic" go crazy on them w/ an impact wrench.. also don't wash your car after a hard run/driving, and don't stand on the brakes/park/sit in traffic after a hard run if you can avoid it..
so far they have been great.. I'd buy another set when mine need replacement..

thanks for hte info... sounds good. I guess i don't have to be worrie too much.. I vaguely recall someone actually sayin it took almost a week for delivery and nopi is out of georgia i think.
As for the install i was thinkin about doin it, but figure i might just leave it to the guy who's gonna do my alignment next week cuz i don't have an impact driver for the screws. He's got a good rep wit some other members of this board.
Unless of course you have nothing to do on monday. hehe

well I've never ordered from Nopi.. but I have ordered stuff from Florida.. (to CA) and it took about a week... I'm sure they'll give you a UPS tracking number so you can track to see when your order SHOULD arrive...
the installs pretty easy and the tool costs about $20... but if you don't wanna put the time in.. or you don't have the other tools then I guess you can have that shop do it..
as for monday.. I have a holiday from work.. but I was thinkin of maybe taking a roadtrip (nor cal) w/ my friend to visit some people...
if you wanna try and tackle it yourself.. heres a link:
