It’s one thing to be funny with a joke or two but this is not even high school funny, you’re being too much. Even now you’re acting like a little kid pumped up on anti-depressants. Calm down. How old are you anyways? Because I’m sure most people would think that you’re at most 17 years old. > [@whats up!](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/whats-up/17662/7): > > You think holding a different opinion, experience or suggestion however lightly or strongly of it someone believes needs to be insulted until they submit to your stance. This is regardless of issues, be it brakes or otherwise. You’re running an HLSD also. That was also ‘track only’ for you. Pretty much everything is track only for you until you get it, have it, experience it and boast about it. Can you quote me on the HLSD comment? I do not remember that. And I don’t think I said that would be track only. And I don’t boast about anything, I recommend them to people based on my experiences. > [@whats up!](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/whats-up/17662/7): > > If someone from their point of experience believed stock brakes sucked, maybe it’s because of a reason and their experience reaching the limits of the brakes before you ever had to know they are not so great, needing something better. That’s just stupid. I remember some kid posting about how stock 240 brakes sucked as he just put on new pads and rotors and he noticed that they were “glowing” shortly after. His brakes were being broken in but he didn’t even know it. So instead of preaching to everyone that they NEED 300zx brakes, give them info on how to get a good and fairly affordable setup. It’s like telling someone who wants 230whp at MOST to just go get a gt30 turbo and 1000cc injectors. > [@whats up!](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/whats-up/17662/7): > > To stop in daily traffic you can stop with anything quite frankly, otherwise it wouldn’t make it out of production due to basic safety. This is suppose to be a sports car and from that standpoint the stock brakes do suck and are outdated by today’s car standards. Obviously most of us are owning these cars for a different purpose than daily driving for groceries, otherwise should really sell the car and get a grocery getter as its a waste of a car. > > You went to great extents to humiliate, insult and propagate your viewpoints and in turn be a hypocrite. No matter what excuses now you try to say oh yeah stock brakes are great, fact is no they are not and thats why you went to something better. Wow look who’s talking now. Aren’t you a hypocrite yourself if you have all these “expensive” parts on your car but you never take it to the track regularly, or have you even taken it to the track? As far as I have known, since last year, you were constantly “building” your car and it was only used as a mean of transport. How are the stock 240 brakes outdated by today’s standards? Go look at some of the new cars and report back to me as to what kind of brakes they have. And please don’t go look at exotic sports cars. And I never said that the stock 240 brakes are GREAT. I said that the 180sx brakes are a great upgrade and more than enough for most people. See? My views haven’t changed. > [@whats up!](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/whats-up/17662/7): > > And if 300zx brakes are so great and so unecessary as well, why didn’t you just go to them instead of wilwoods as they are cheaper to maintain? Maybe because they too fade and have some other issues. So again, proves that maybe just maybe stock brakes suck, 300zx brakes are not ‘too much’ as wilwoods are ‘over the top too much’. > > Otherwise if you’re such a chump you would go back to stock brakes and go out there drive your car around, but they do suck…if they were so great you would still be running them, as you used to preach they are more than enough for even track. Went to Q45s and then preached on how 300zx brakes are totally unnecessary again which is totally ridiculous in contrast now. You can understand english right? How many times do I have to say that 300zx brakes are not NEEDED. It all depends on what you are going to use your car for. I highly doubt that most people here can fade a properly working set of 300zx brakes at the track. And if they do, there’s a chance that they put in a shitty fluid and/or did not do something correctly. To begin with, I will tell you that we have very few 240s that even come out to the track. Most people here do not track their cars to the point where they will need 300zx brakes. Most 240s that track their cars are into drift. And when you’re drifting, stock brakes with a good set of pads and fluid should be good enough. Upgrading to a 180sx or Q45 brake upgrade might even be a little overkill for that purpose. If anyone disagrees with me, just feel free to bash me. You can’t learn anything if you’re always right. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/just-so-you-guys-know-a-ahmed-is-back/117018)._
