There is one thing that needs to be pointed out with this list that the Stoptech caliper weights listed above include the pads and bracket. I know the weights that OC Kid provided were without the pads but I don't know if the bracket was included. Overall, I think the weight savings is about equal, maybe slight edge to Stoptech because the pads for the Brembos are surely more than 2 pounds, but the difference is trivial. Stoptech uses a smaller rotor in the back and both rotors are thicker overall.

Stoptech 380x35 (F) 355x32 (R)
Brembo 380x34 (F) 380x28 (R)
