Granted... I must say that this is when I am driving spirited. Not when I am just on cruise control or driving like a normal human being.
If the ABS kicks in, they stop amazing!!! But let's say you are going 40 mph and you decided not to run a red light just as it's tuning yellow? You really got to SLAM on the brakes to get the car to stop even though a sharper feel would still make you feel the car is actually going to stop, where as the stock 4 piston with pads do NOT, so I feel the need to SLAM on the brakes... That is my feel of em which I HATE.
I do plan on upgrading to the 6 pistons AND upgrading to a different pad once the current pads I have are done for.
I am used to upgrading my brake rotors and pads on all my toy cars, I didn't this time since they put so much effort into the car, figured I didn't need to. But I miss the feel of being able to trust my brakes 100%. It is a personal preference. I am NOT saying the 4 pistons are bad... My '09 F150 super crew cab gives me more trust on the brakes than my camaro does. But my camaro stops so much better. So it isn't about "bad or good", it's the feel I do not like. My evos had DBA 4000 slotted rotors with RacingBrake Et500 pads with the stock brembos. And my evo stopped on a dime which weighed identical to the camaro without sunroof.

same, i like them but there is no initial brake bite, was wondering if the 6 piston would make a diffrence plus they look cool
