Price sounds about on par with most big brake kits, def. not necessary for street use but I am sure a hard core track fit would benifit from them. Though I have heared that a well balanced track fit usually doesnt use the brakes much. Most tracks just lift throttle is enough to clear the corner since turn in slows the car down some and it doesnt have much power so keeping corner speed up is a neccesity. Also for street use keep in mind all the project mu pads I have ever used have been super aggressive and not much fun on the street. I am sure they have a less aggressive pad but just the ones I have driven are very grabby on initial pedal feel.

That's pretty much what the owner of the brake kit said on his page after installing them -- only really good for track use, and maybe even too good. Project-mu does offer it w/ street pads, but doesn't specify which ones.

i would soo rock that odyssey.

in my experience, Project Mus were good brakes, but only because they were extremely rough during braking. like a super abupt stop.. a set of pads will definitely EAT your rotors in a few months time...IF you drive hard enough.

Ive heard Endless has much better product, its a bit pricey, but there are A LOT of options for brake setups.

Anyone know exactly what brakes are used on the Spoon Fit?
