New Toy

I got this from www.fastbrakes.com. The guy was really cool. It is a 4 piston Wilwood, with a brembo rotor. It comes with hawk pads, brake line and adapters. They are not really a bbk, well I guess they are bigger than my stocks. But they will work. Here is the pic.

very nice. I've been looking around at different brake options. Have you installed them yet? Let us know how they perform compared to stock.

They were $880.00 with shipping. I get them on this wed so I will give put a review asap. Like I said the guy was really cool. If you call ask for Brian. I know now these will not fit my 17 without a spacer the calipers are way too big. I just hope they will fit the 20's. LOL I am going to look at getting some 350z track wheels soon or maybe the coupe 18 since they are made for brembos.

no wonder you've been asking for my pictures!! i'll have them for your this weekend. I had the same choices between the coupe 18s and the z track 18s and decided to sell the coupe 18s because it was around 25 lbs vs 18 lbs. the Z track wheels were stagger while the coupes were just staggered tires. the Z tracks show off the brakes off a lot more too

Very nice. See my sticky in the Brakes & Suspension Forum for detailed pics of my Wilwood BBK install. Great price!

Yeah I saw that, I guess I might have to get some 17x8 wheels or maybe some 15 mm spacers.

Here is the finish project. I used a 5mm space with extended studs. (thanks guys). The rotor still looks small in the pic, but its bigger than stock. Now to get some wheels to show it off better.

I hope they are not on backwards, you are looking at the drivers side rotor, they slots look like they are going the right way. If you look at the first pic, its the one on the left.

Well when I look at it, it might clear without the spacer, but we want to make sure. So we put it on, the wheel is alittle more flush with the car. As for the stock 17, he said with the 5mm spacer there is about a business card gap he didnt recommend putting them on. I will try to take close up shots of the gap with the 5mm spacer. They are H&R ones. They are really nice. Plus if I get some coupe wheels, man just think the offset will be a +25 yeah really flush.
