kinda hard to compare but:
the 'cilpers' on the mugen kit are off an S2k and the rotors are a mugen design. This kit requires 16" wheels

The sp00n 'cilpers' will fit behind the stock 15" wheel and only replaces the stock calipers.

I suspect the cost has something to do with that!

I had started to type a response earlier, ... with price as one of the only drawbacks.
That and having to find replacement rotors once you go through the first set.

I didn't address the Mugen vs. Spoon aspect.
Spoon just supplies calipers hich must then be used with stock type rotors.
Whereas Mugen supplies a "system" approach in which the clamping force is increased and the rotor has a significant cooling aspect in the design.

Like what other people said, but the biggest drawback to me is that they have to use 16" rims... I like 15" rims on the R myself...

I would be perfect if you could get the Mugen kit without calipers and just use the spoons.

mugeneg6 has/had them. They did require a 16" wheel. If you want to break the bank on your brakes, look into the AP`s.
