The 2011 non sport EX35 really needs better brakes. Anybody know how much unsrpung weight the G37 BBK adds?

I'm sure it adds some. Bigger rotors but the calipers are not as heavy. It's surely not going to be enough to notice a difference and the positive attributes far outweigh a few lbs.

The front rotors weigh approximately 12 - 15 lbs more than the standard rotors, the rears about 8 - 10lbs more... You aren't going to notice it in that SUV... You can get 2pc rotors and bring it back under the weight of the standard EX rotors.
