gt 500 brake question!

[jymontoya]

Curious if you got a chance for those pictures yet?

Sorry. Not yet. I don't have any shots with the new brakes I can post up.

I have been working till 630-7 or so all week and have to find an hour to wash the car since the wheels are black.

Unless you guys want pics of brake dust covered bullitts. lol

I have wanted to upgrade things with giant rotors but have not had the big money. So for my track time at Larry Miller in Utah I went this route. The one thing I have learned is break-in makes or breaks Brakes! Seasoning the rotors per Baer or Brembo proceedure is critical. The same goes for the pads. My set up is as follows. Power Slot rotors (cheap but tough), Stainless lines, 500 degree DBP brake fluid (pick your brand), EBC Yellow pads for track use, EBC Red for street driving. In three and half hours of driving at Miller my rotors turned blue,I used up half a set of yellow pads and never once had brake fade. The rotors did not warp and since I have put the red pads on the Ni washed rotors look good and don't rust and shined up nice from the blue they were.

Sounds like you need some brake ducting!

FGT wheels FTW

 

[Dex]

Yea, they have a few sets but they dont ship them. Its a good hour to go there and back so I would get them for you guys but I need the money upfront and a little money for the gas and shipping. I believe they are $350 for a set. Includes pads, rotors, the brembo calipers, brackets, etc.. Not sure if it includes SS lines

Soonest I can pick them up is wednesday

 

[SoundGuyDave]

Just checking, we're talking OE GT500 front brake packages, no parts missing (discounting the lines)?

 

[Dex]

Correct sir. Take offs at Miller Motorsports. Brembo brakes

Shelby GT500 Front Brake Kit- Pads, Rotors, Caliper

PM sent

 

[ryanralston07]

Why won't they ship?

 

[Dex]

These are his exact words

We should have a few brake kits left but we're unable to ship these since this is something I've been selling on the side. If you would like pick them up anytime before Wed works for me. Just let me know. Call me on my cell when you have a chance.
