Default Brembo needs your IS350!

Brembo Race Tech is looking for an IS350 to develop their GT brake kit on. If you are seriously interested your car will be used for R&D and in return you will get a discounted brake kit from Brembo direct.

Please e-mail or PM me for more information.

They are in Orange County (hence the reason the post is here).

Regards,

Kevin

Just a discounted brake kit for the use of your IS350??? They will probably do a bunch or 100-0 stops, etc. This equals ware and tare on your vehicle.

I don't know about others but I wouldnt let them touch my car unless I got the kit FREEEEE. Just a discount doesnt cut it.

Plus the stress on the suspension, probably gonna do a buncha fast accelerations too. In the end I dont know if it'd be worth the wear and tear on the car itself to just get a discount . But to each his own.

Brembo was just down the street from my old work in Costa Mesa. They're located not too far from Hooters and the former regional Nissan North America office.

I agree. With the HUGE markup that Brembo makes from their products...they should give away the product for free to their donor vehicle.

Heck, they can afford a nice sized building in SoCal (Costa Mesa no less)...they can afford to give away one brake kit.

im sure brembo could care less what all the above posters mentioned. there's at least 1 person out there that would be willing to lend them their car.
