    It works great!

    Helps reduce the nosedive the car does under hard braking and the car feels like it is squatting instead.

    Re: Just ordered Stasis Alcon rear brake uprade

    Yea, I read all of the arguing between Alcon and Brembo. I just fininshed, too much fighting and judging. I thought this setup would be the best alternative. I have B7 calipers for the front with S4 rotors. I want my car to handle better and stop better before I start making it go faster.

    Yes, we love ours. Did you order it from STaSIS direct? We probably could have saved you some $$.

    Installed last night, big difference in size and stopping power. The e-brake cable did not fit quite right.

    Awesome.

    Did you talk to STaSIS more about this? It can be a tight fit.

    Re: Just ordered Stasis Alcon rear brake uprade

    I have not contacted Stasis about it yet. I think there are two tabs, only one could be hooked up. Are the pads that come with the kit any good? There are no shims on the back of the pads. With the caliper being that much farther back, do you think there will any problems? Have you received much feedback from your customers with this set-up? It is just like yours.
