Talking AP Racing 13" 4 POT KIT F/R

I just installed the AP Racing 13" Front and Rear 4 POT kit on my Z. The brakes are a huge improvement over stock, and I could not pass up the deal I got on them ($1500). Let me know what you guys think.

Here are a few pics (is just finished raining so the car is a little dirty):

Guys, this was a one off deal. I bought them from a guy that had them installed for a month.

I would watch the boards and talk to other members. You never know when someone might dump something for an awesome price.

350ZNV,

You asked why your new brakes are so awesome. Without any hesitation, I have installed 6 sets of APs on our customer cars in the last few months. The brakes are amazing on the road and track. They deliver incredible performance, it is NOT just about stopping distance, the brakes TRUELY OUTSTANDING performance is its ability to dissipate heat and LACK of brake fade even after 30 minutes of running hard at Willow Springs, Cal Speedway, and Button Willow at speeds of 150 mph back down to 40 lap after lap. No lie.

Your New AP Racing 14.25/6 Piston fronts and 13/4 piston rears have been installed at VRT. Can't wait to ride in your new racecar with a built motor, JWT TT kit, the new NISMOS on Mich/ Pilot Cups, and these new AP Racing brakes. I believe your car will be the fastest VRT car on the track thus far.

Sweet.

Here are the pics of your new brakes 350ZNV front and rear.

Warmly,

Michael

They look amazing Michael!!! I dropped by the shop on Christmas Eve, but you were gone. These things are HUGE in person. Can't wait.

P.S. Sorry for kind of hijacking your thread n77nxc

Yes,

It is kinda funny looking at the brakes without any wheels especially when the car has no motor weight. Your build is coming out nicely as well. These Holidays do slow things down a bit.

Take a look at this picture with the same AP Racing Brakes inside a 19 inch SF Challenge Volk rim.

You will definitely enjoy and they will dominate on the track.
