I don’t like the stock pads not enough bite. So maybe I will get them lol, we’ll see.

i just did the lower crank pulley and 200 cell sport cats on my 16 R and the car finally has the power And sound I’m happy with. It’s a shame these cars weight what they do, if they came in around 3600lbs (in the AWD model at least) wow would this car be a monster! So loosing some weight is a must lol. Coming from a 800hp c7 z06 manual i thought experience wasn’t going to be as good with this car but I love just as much.

what’s the lead time on getting the rotors?
Hey another C7 Z06 owner! Seems like there are more than a couple of us on here. Mine isn't 800hp though and the F Type R is significantly slower. I don't think even if it dropped a few hundred pounds to get down to 3600, it still wouldn't hang with even a stock Z06. Same weight and 100hp less? Me thinks not! But yes, it will definitely help dropping a lot of rotational mass.

dropping a few hundred LBs won’t make up for the 650/650 the z06 makes, but a pulley and tune sure will. I feel my car is now as fast or almost as a completely stock c7z and the faster we go the more of an advantage the jag has. But I didn’t buy the jag
for that it just happens to be pretty quick and that’s awesome!

the c7z depending on year makes a decent difference too, 17+ are the ones to have.
