Who has this set-up and do you like it? How much was the install and how long did it take - what is the brake feel like now? and does ABS feel the same? Any regrets or issues? I'm thinking of doing all four - for looks and performance - I hate the little rear brakes inside my SSRs.

Default One thing to note, if you do decide to do the Stoptech 4 wheel kit, buy it all at once.

If you already have the 355 kit up front the rears will not work as intended. That is one thing that I don't understand why Stoptech didn't work into when they developed the 4 wheel kit. Most track users already have the 355s but will have to sell and get different calipers for the front if they decide to upgrade to the rears but if you have the Brembo 355 up front, you can just upgrade the rears with the Stoptech.
