Thanks.

Chris, any word on what our pad options are? I think there are also porterfield pads for the calipers.

 

race technologies has been closed since 12/21
i'll check in with them again when they reopen on 1/3/2011.

 

I love my StopTech Street Performance pads on my OEM brembo setup. I've been a big pusher of them when one of the regular "need new pads" post pops up. Its cool to see you went with that option on your brembo setup.

I dont doubt you find them to be a great street pad, but all I can say is do not expect them to be the be-all end-all pad on the track. They'll do the job, but they are still not by any means a true track pad, but you will be able to go from the home driveway to the track and back without touching them at least!

 

OH wow! Red Brembo's is looking cool!

 

Oh lord... Gorgeous x_x

 

hawt!! Silly question, but those rear calipers look really similar to the factory Brembos. Somebody school me on why they are better...lol. Love the car btw.

 

^silly answer, the rears are factory Brembo

 

I agree.... there's always going to be some compromise with each design. Hopefully they'll hold up for light track duty, without me needing to change pads at the track. It's not as easy changing the pads with these calipers, since with the monoblock design, I need to remove the calipers to get access to the pads.

WataG, yes, the rears are just factory brembos, powdercoated red. But the rotors are two piece stoptechs with nismo pads.

 

Where did you get those shims for the rear pads? I am assuming they would work with the OEM rear 2 piston Brembo setup.

 

looks sick

I'm using the OEM 2 piston brembos, so they will fit.

 

Bought some titanium brake shims. 1mm for the fronts, 0.5mm for the rears.

im not able to find the N caliper pads or the stop tech pads for the fronts. please help!
