Bris: Big Brake Kits

[martz]

Hi Guys,

just wondering where one would go to purchase a big brake kit? my 350Z is currently in CNJ Motorsports and advised me that my rotors need to be replaced so I thought I'll take the opportunity to upgrade (I'll need it anyway for better stopping power). I'm currently running the touring version stocko brakes (non-brembo)..

Thanks.

Im running the Brembos, they arent bad as road brakes. Are you planning to track it though? What size rims are you planning to run?

[Roy]

Budget? Front and rears? What wheel size do you run?

I suggest the best value would be these at around $3400

What are they Roy?

[martz]

I don't intend to track (but you never know) but definitely will be doing a lot "spirited" driving.

Rim sizes are 19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 volk racing wheels.

Budget would be 5k total for the front and rears.

They look the goods Roy, what brand are they, and what car is that? The front susp looks just like my Stagea.

Its a 370Z front end. The brakes are the old CSC, then B-Spec and now ARK designs. The design has not changed, though rather then painting they are now hard anodising the calipers. They still prove to be good setup with quality rotors, a sort of Harrop copy caliper that uses a Porsche Pad. With Harrop, Stoptech and others using Porsche pads there is a good range of compounds available.

You may just get the front and rears for 5k
