Smile Endless BBK

I just bought a set of 6pot/4pot Endless BBK off a local guy, but it needs new rotors and pads.

Where do you guys recommend to buy replacement rotors and pads?

Any sponsors carry them?

Thanks.

This is the kit.

I contacted Gruppe-S and a few vendors on here, but no replies. I also contacted that site and a few I found online, but still no replies.
The only place responded was Endless Usa, but I'd like to get a few quotes first.

Yeah I'd try Adam or Kwame at Z1. If you don't have any luck there, Michael@Vividracing has been able to get a hold of some rare parts for me in the past.

Thanks guys. I'll shoot Z1 a pm soon.

I already have the rotor hats, so I only need new rotors and pads.

there are so few of these out there i'd like a comparable.

always wanted this setup, but ended up installing an r35 brembo kit f/r,,,

I'll take some pics for you, but give me a few days.

This is 345mm/332mm setup. Everything was included with this kit.

im afraid how much a new set of pads and rotors are for those brakes. probably almost as much as you paid for the used calipers.

True that

No need for new rotors, just got the rotors turned at a local shop. They came out decent.

Now just need new pads and get the rotor hats painted.

before you "paint" the rotor hats - consider getting them anodized to match the calipers or powdercoated. It's my opinion you take some time getting this perfect as you'll likely not get an opportunity to do it again considering they'll be bolted to your ride.

this will also pay huge dividends when you sell post-facto... Well anodized or powdered will definitely sell better thereafter.

and please post some fukn pics.

Well, I haven't confirmed this, but the mechanic who removed the rotors and calipers said that the rear rotor hats are steel and the front are aluminum. He told me that steel cannot be powder coated (?).

I was thinking about getting the rotor hats powder coated, but after what he told me, I was opting for getting them painted with high temp paint.

I prefer powder coated or anodized over painting as well.
I'll call around and find out.

And I will take some pics this weekend. I still have to clean them up.
