It took my a while looking back and forth trying to figure out what you were talking about. I seen the spelling error, but then, I looked at your comment as bigotry instead of a pun. Got all "who tf is this guy." Now im sitting here laughing. Very clever sir, I will watch out for you in the future.

He just kind of showed up one day with a few years and a few hundred posts.

slartibartfast, what gives? Were you a Coupe owner at one point, and only recently started hanging out in the Sedan forum?

OP, It's hard to tell you what you should do because I don't have the bbk. But like others have mentioned, if your going the performance route with other mods I strongly suggest it. I upgraded to hps pads and slotted rotors and ss lines and dot4 fluid for around $500. Stock calipers (I have an X sedan) Honestly I can't imagine having bigger more capable brakes being anything but awesome. If I could do it all over again I would of just gotten the bbk and called it a day. Don't get me wrong my setup is ok but the bbk is better

Nope. First and only Infiniti is my sedan. I signed onto the board awhile back but had to take a break when I got a bit full of myself.

I hit all the forums that I think have info of interest. Because the coupe and sedan are so similar (despite what some of the coupe guys seem to think), that's why I look in the coupe forum. However, I don't think I've ever looked into the convertible forum.

I'm a word nerd, do crosswords in ink. So, I spotted GR4N4T's substitution and and made my snarky comment. I'm the last person to tell someone not to mod. While I'm a devout form-follows-function person, you'll rarely see me nay-say another person's choice of mods though I may present options.
