does anyone know if the calipers are Akebono sourced or just the pads or what?
The brakes are POWERFUL in my car and was just wondering!

AFAIK, the calipers and pads are in fact Akebono. This is what my saleman and I discussed before I purchased, he had shown me some reviews and other third party articles that he had researched that indicated they were. The guy actually knew a lot about the engineering behind the design of the car and was really enjoying my grilling him on the technical aspects. He was a real 'car guy'. He even had a bunch of YouTube tech reviews saved that we looked at after the test drive.
