Lots of Take Off's - GT500 Brembo's $550

[94tbird]

i wish i could use these and still use skinnies up front

 

[Herknav]

So this is a front set of Brembos?

How difficult are brakes to install? plug and play?

 

[94tbird]

pretty easy man

 

[Herknav]

hmmm.. how big are they, compared to stock? My stock calipers just *barely* fit with my wheels...

 

[94tbird]

14" rotors i belive. if you barely fit now you might not fit with these. you need a min 18" rim and even some 18s dont fit

 

[Herknav]

So you need to upgrade rotors as well? What do we have stock?

 

[94tbird]

stock fronts are 13" i believe

 

[Herknav]

ahhh... so not-so plug and play... I would need new rotors, not to mention my current wheels (18x9 up front DD bullets) won't fit...

 

[94tbird]

they may fit i am unsure. some 18s fit others dont it depends on backspacing. also they are pretty plug n play. dex's kit here comes with the rotors so just undo the brake line and attatch to bremo caliper, change the rotor, bleed the brakes and your done.

I really should take some pictures... of course, I have a couple weeks before I can do that...

These are only for the front right?

 

[94tbird]

correct front only. the GT500 shares the same rear brakes as a GT and a v6, but the GT500 has different pads

 

[Herknav]

grrr... this is a decision I canna make right now...

 

[94tbird]

lol

fordracingparts.com has a step by step process with pictures. Just go to brakes and there is a link to instructions. easy as pie,

You pull the brakes and rotor off and you put the Brembos on. Thats about it.

Thanks for the responses guys. I still have some left but they are moving quick. I also have access to some more so keep the orders coming. There are cosmetic flaws on most but for the most part they arent bad. Unfortunately I cant pick and choose whichs ones I get and dont get. I package them up and put em in a box.

The first few boxes were a disaster because Kinkos did them. I am packing and shipping all the boxes now so I dont see there being any problems...hoepfully.

Thanks again guys!

I had 20" DD bullits and no chance in hell they we're going to fit. I'm going to go on a limb and say it wont work with yours unless you use spacers. www.mustangwheelspacers.com sells some good ones. You'll prolly need at least an 1" to clear.

I just went ahead an bought new rims to accommodate the brakes.

 

[Herknav]

Maybe I can think about these... I just ordered a set of the Saleen Heritage 19" from PMP (refrence the thread to see them). Can I assume the Brembos will fit with these???

Glad you got your Jon. Yours was the last of the idiots packing the boxes. Hope everything was ok.

I am packing and shipping these myself now. There shouldnt be anymore problems.

I take the brakes in my truck and drive the stang to work so I forget the tracking numbers every f-ing morning because Im an idiot.Sorry if i havent given you a tracking number but I promise it will get there soon!

I would think the brembos will fit with the 19" Saleens

Naw, no brakes yet. I actually get them today. I'm not home so they may have already been dropped off. Lol, hopefully their in good cosmetic shape. If not I guess I'll just use some touch up paint. No biggie pcshoot Haha

But the brake impulse buy lead me to impulse buy some new rims....

EDIT: Brembo's got delivered. One word. Awesome. Thanks for the great deal.

I should have asked before buying them but I sure hope they fit with my stock 18".
