Default Gotta admit. The caliper housing looks very similar. :)

Default I'm a long way off from getting a brake upgrade...

But when I do, it will be StopTech. You're hard earned reptuation on this forum for a quality product and superior service has convinced me.

Default You have to admit.. that any brake caliper looks the same on the surface.

WTF is your point?

I think the Brembos came 1st. Don't get upset. Stoptech rules. It's okay.

Default Im not.. but.. im just saying...

all calipers look the same to the untrained eye. Diffrences in construction are internal, usually in the construction of the bridges, cooling mechanisms, and metalurgy. Saying that a caliper housing is 'similar' is misleading, because all calipers look essentially the same.

Default brand stooge

you have actually held both of them in your hands and compared them side by side? I have and I wouldn't suggest they are more than superficially similar from less than 3 feet away.

Yeah, they're both red. Casting details definitely look different.

No, Stoptechs are the best. They even feel better held in the same hand. Brand stooge, indeed.
