Enthuz if your looking to replace your n-tech brake connector (part closest to the rotor) I'll take it off your hands. I have all the parts I need right now except for some type of routing to the rotor.

Dave, let me sleep on the idea of selling the ducts. I MIGHT want to modify them to better suit my needs. Then again, an extra $10,000 in my racing budget would be a major plus!

 

Thanks for the duct ends. I finally got around to finishing the installation. Thanks to CRayZ for the install tips. I had excellent results at thunderhill this last weekend. I made a few changes for my installation. First, my hose does not do the u-turn that yours does in your above picture. I removed that plastic piece on the passenger side and routed the hose in a straighter fashion to the wheel.
Second, I trimmed the fiberglass duct end by about 1" to give some more clearance with the hose and my 9.5" wheel at full lock.
It was a cold weekend but from what I could tell, I was running a little cooler up front. I just have to go back in some time and tidy things up and seal the ends with some RTV.
I'll post some pics when I have a chance.

 

Please post some pics when you can...I am planning on redoing my ducts to make life easier for street use. Will post some new pics when I am done.

 

Pics before tidying things up. After pics will come in about a year when I tidy things up.

 

Looks good. I like the way you routed your hose. It looks like it will not rub with full steering lock.

 

Just got back from a warm day (upper 90's) at thunderhill. The ducts worked great! I used to get a little fade on the back side of the track after about 10 minutes of hard driving. Now I was able to hammer the brakes all session long with no fade whatsoever! I wasn't able to measure actual brake temps, but things didn't smell as bad when I came into the pits after a cool down lap.

 

damn, im doin this soon!

 

Looks and sounds great, Dave.

I'd like to do something like that too, but I could never fit those hoses in there with all my intercooler piping...

 

After MUCH prompting, we are finally working on an updated duct design...

 

I'm very interested to see what you've done....

 

subscribing / keep us posted (we just chatted on the phone). the brake issues were/are frustrating enough to make me list my car for sale

then again, I'm probably also waaaay over-using them.

 

Was this project ever completed?

 

+1

any chance of cooling to quickly with this design? I was thinking of doing the same project over the winter. Seems it could be done cheap enough just trying to think it through. Uneven cooling is the only thing I am concerned with.

 

cooling too quickly? on the Z? god I wish I had that problem hehe

 

subscribing to this thread for some great info. this should keep us from buying those BBK's anytime soon

...or maybe not...

 

Niiice! :-)

 

Has anything ever come of this? I'm looking for something I can just buy from someone rather then having to goto a shop to fab it up.

 

i've seen atleast one kit out there, but honestly i have no idea who sold it...google maybe? but to do it yourself wouldn't take much more then a trip to Lowes or Home Depot. You may have to buy the intake plastic or elbows online or at a local speed shop (www.cdoc.com) but other then that its just hose, zip ties, hose clamps and patience

 

3 mins later and a little google i found this..
