Can you please post pictures of your kit installed. Found someone's Brembos painted silver and would like to see the StopTech kit in silver. Looking at purchasing the 14" (355mm) 6-pot (F) & 4-pot (R) kit. Just want to make sure silver is what I want. Thanks!!!

 

i wanna see this too subbing

 

One of the Forged guys has a silver car with nismos and silver stoptechs...find the contest thread for good pics

 

I'm thinking the Silver will look great on my Superblack with my Matte Black Work S1's.

just noticed this one

 

Thanks!!! Anyone care to share?

 

The silver is a great looking color. Since silver is a special order, there is a lead time for any bbk with silver calipers. Also if you plan on tracking your car a lot it would be better to go with red or black calipers. They stand up to the heat better.

 

 

Why is that? Doesn't sound logical if it is all the same type of paint.

 

good point tech

 

yea i was wondering that same thing.

 

Changing the color of the calipers through heat isn't something that is easy to do. A lot of heat has to be created in order for the calipers to do so.

Given enough heat, any color caliper from any company will start to change, with exception to black. Heat tends to turn things darker, so the dark colors don't change as much. The lighter colors tend to be more sensitive to heat.

 

So more than likely, there will be no problems with any of the colors, even though you suggest against it?

 

this is a set of silver's i just bought. they have had a couple of seasons on the track.
im going to repaint them when they get here. also i'd like to say thumbs up for Stoptech's service. i contacted them before i bought them and they answered very helpful, prompt and friendly.

 

Wow! Good info & pics here guys! Keep it coming.

 

Wow, what a great pic.

 

Wow, those actually look like they have a bit of gold coloring to them.

 

 

You should see what the OEM Brembo's look like after a good number of track sessions. They're almost brown.
Robert, how's it going? Having fun in the sun? I'm looking at silver Stoptech's as well, but the 332mm front and ST20 calipers in the rear for track days and Time Trial use. I'm tired of my stock brakes overheating and fading out. Or melting piston boots. Anyways, nice choice for brakes. Can't wait till you're back,
Will

 

Some guys go out and never turn their calipers from any color than how they arrived. Other guys go out and create huge amounts of heat turning calipers super dark. So it's hard to judge who drives how hard from the forums. That's why I advise that it may happen, and usually suggest the safer route of going to red or black calipers to prevent color changes.

Brembo's anyone?
