Big Brake kit installed (pics)

I installed my Wilwood 6 piston front brake kit last night. Installation was easy, took about an hour and 20 minutes. Brakes are AWESOME, excellent pedal feel!

Damn those look nice...Love the drilled rotors also. 14"?

I've been thinking that the 4 piston's are starting to look a little bit small.

Thanks... yes they are 14 inch with 6 piston calipers. I got them for $1750.. Everything else I looked at had 4 pistons and 13 inch rotors for the same money.

i'll save up for Endless or Alcons if I can afford them.

APC is my weapon of choice.
APC reeks of great taste.
APC is the greatest aftermarket company in the world!

Man, if $1750 was for the front and back that would be a deal. I think these were about 4k (friends car).

Re: Big Brake kit installed (pics)

thanks,
The Rotaras where my first choice, but I saw the deal on these so went with them. The Rotaras I looked at had 13 inch rotors and 4 piston calipers for $1699.99. The Wilwoods are 14 inch and 6 pistons for $1750
