I had my heart set on the ERA rear. It is just plain sexy. For that reason I upgraded 755 to the larger front brakes and ERA rear. I honestly couldn't feel any difference.

What I did notice is when I burnished the brakes it took 20 stops from 40 mph to get the brakes hot. Normally, 10 would do the job.

I had intended to build a ERA and had certain options that I really wanted. 755 came along with 800 miles and very similar to what I would have built. I estimate I saved nearly $10k, even after changing the rear and front brakes.

John.
