All Brembo brakes the same ?

[Gabe]

I used the aluminum brackets the dude is selling on svtp and eBay, used them on both cars, they spaced out the rear caliper about an inch allowing the use of the '13-'14 GT500-size rear rotors (about 13.8") instead of the puny factory rear rotors:

Gabe-

So you didn't have to pull the axles to install those brackets?

Nope.
Just pull rotors and calipers, install brackets, reinstall calipers and rotors.
I also installed new pads at the same time but that's optional unless they're worn.
Either way, because the new rotors will most likely be thicker than the old ones, you'll need the special tool to wind the caliper piston back in, so the pads will fit.

Wow. The OEM brackets require pulling the axles to install them. Got a link to those brackets?

Yeah that's the guy. PM him on there, he can probably do even better. I think i got the last set for $110-115

I have 13 GT500 rear brakes. Pulled the axles to install the brackets and I reused my 07 GT rear calipers. The calipers were identical.

That's good to know, and those are 14" rotors? Reusing the same calipers and pads?

Did someone say rear BBK?

Here's mine from Steeda. Yes, you have to pull the rear axles, since this kit has a solid billet aluminum bracket to replace the stock piece, but it's not a big deal. Reuses the factory calipers.

Yes reused same caliper and pads. Same brake lines and parking lines as well.

Casting and markings were identical. With my OCD I would have replaced it even it was slightly different.

These were early 2013 GT500 takeoffs that Renegan Racing was selling off their track cars.

Awesome, I'll probably do the same in due time.

Lol, no, but that was a very Darren-ish thing to say

That's true. But, flaunt it if you got it, right?
