Hi,
I'm looking around for the best relation of performance/less weight bbk from Stoptech.
I thought about 4 piston 14" front, 4 piston 13" rear.
What do you think?

I've searched!
Thanks for answers.
Alex

 

For weight savings go with the ST-22 2 piston 328 rear. It should be good for your needs. I am using the ST-40 front caliper and the OEM Brembo rear which uses the same pad as the St-22 and it holds up well for me on the track. The rear pads are very small and wear out quickly. You might consider going with the ST-45 4 piston 355 rear like you said just for the increased pad size for longevity. But if weight is your biggest concern, the 2 piston ST-22 328 is what you want.

 

Hmmm, I dont like the 2 piston look. But, thanks for the idea.
How much would weight difference between 13" 4 piston rear and 328mm 2 piston rear?

What do the others think about 4 pist 14" front, 4 piston 13" rear?

 

bump what do others think about:
Stoptech 4 pist 13" front, 4 pist 13" rear
and
Stoptech 4 pist 14" front, 4 pist 13" rear
??

 

I don't think they make a 4 piston 13" rear. I think they only make a 355mm 4 piston rear.

Are we doing this to be fasionable or for performance?

page 16, comment 302 -> he has 13" in rear

2. A mix of both

 

That is on a Dodge Viper

 

Thanks.

 

Stoptech catalog states there is a 355 4 piston app or a 328 2 piston app.

 

ummpf, I think I'm going 2 piece 13" rear. They look much bigger than I thought.
What do you drive front? 4 piston... 14" or 13"?

Alex.

 

here's my stoptech 14" 4pot front and 14" 4pot rear, I can place them on the scale and weigh them for you. The calipers on the front looks exactly the same as the rear in my eyes, I don't see any difference, the only difference is the length of the steel braided brake lines

 

DO it!
Thanks!

 

can anybody tell me why stoptech say the rear are for track use only???

 

Because if you push your brake pad, your brakes could stop a tank!

 

lol lol

 

they weigh about 29lbs each

 

And how much do OEM Brembos weigh? OEM Non Brembos?

I think this would make a good sticky if we could get weights of each of the kits out there.

 

That is a good question. However, isn't the 2006 non-Brembo model and up using a different setup than the previous years?

 

+1 seeing as the front brakes do over 70% of braking, id feel that a 2 piston rear is more than adaquet? im running the stoptech 355 up front, and stock single pistons rears (upgraded pads and ss lines) and i feel thats enough for a good track day (although i wanna go rear bbk in the future)

 

+1 not needed that much stopping power in the rear on the track.




Looks extra bling if you're a waxer, though.
