you need material to dissipate heat, but brakes are leverage... and components make a difference. the thing i like about stoptech is that if we have an issue, they are hands-on enough to make adjustments, try getting that from brembo.

i drove race cars with full carbon brakes, i did brake testing/development for hawk/ferodo/perf.frict/etc.... and stoptech has been great to us.

i think they have the best kits available for tin top cars.... look at the speed world challenge...

Well they are cheaper than alcon. Thats for sure. When the time comes i will have to consider stoptech.

 

honestly,

for anything but F1 or lmp, i dont think you could ask for more...

they are very hands on, every promise or comittment they have ever made to us has come through.

the standard 4 piston kits use very reasonable pads, and there are about 100 compounds available...

i prefer them very much over the brembos.

nice kits.

 

Nice.

 

HUge and Sweet

 

wow it's HUGE

 

Very nice upgrade.

 

i want to see the rotors side by side standing on the table please

 

Are you going to use brake cooling ducts, or is that not necessary anymore?

 

sounds good! ill get some today.

cb

 

i always recommend ducting

those look pretty sweet...how long til they are for sale for the rest of us or are they already available?

 

they should be available very shortly!

here are the pics from when we weighed them...











oh yeah, and this stoptech rotor comes in handy (literally)

there is a 9lbs difference per front corner with these brakes, most weight savings is in the rotor... where it really counts...

the caliper savings is 2 lbs...rotor just over 6.5

Ill have the exact weights and measurements tomorrow.

i measure rotor thickness, vane thickness etc... but left my notebook at the shop!

hope you guys like!
