Default Wilwood Brakes !!!!!

Here is a pic of my new Wilwood brakes Powder coated in Blue. This kit boasts HUGE 14" Rotors - 6 (YES SIX) Piston calipers in the Front and 4 Piston in the Rear.

I have just been able to break them in with over 600 miles. . . Talk about Huuuuuuuge Stopping POWER!!!!! I have had ZERO problems with these brakes. I love them.

Let me know what you think. If you are interested in picking up a pair of your own PM Jeff@Evolution. He is able to get a variety of custom colors for a small extra fee.

more pics please? Those brakes look incredible. I was reading up on Willwood, and discovered they are one of the only brake manufactuer to use solid aluminum to machine their brake calipers. Almost everyone else (including Stop-Tech and Rotora) use varioius methods of casting, which is not nearly as strong or ridgid as a CNC machined block of aluminum.

I will be ordering some soon...just need to get my car back from the body shop.
