Lockheed out did themselves. Price?

 

Did you or your installer run into any problems getting them on?

 

Those are real nice brakes and the same kind I want, too. If you don't mind saying, how much? Thanks in advance.

 

Hi all,
I'm from Spain, and I buy this big brake kit at
http://www.brake-pros.com (Stillen).
The final price is the same of the web page:

- AP3700: 2,695.00 USD
- Sport lines: 120.00 USD

The shipment to Spain and taxes are very expensive:

- Shipment & Taxes: 1,090.00 USD
- Monting at official Nissan dealer: 145.00 USD

Total brake kit (without AP551 brake fluid): 4,050.00 USD

Now, I've 200km (136miles), and bedding is not finished, but I
think it feel good... No problem in the instalation, very easy.

More pictures & report comming soon.
Regards,

 

Mo350Zart,

Did you have the Brembos before? If yes, is the AP better then the Brembos?

Thanks,
Az

 

yes, i have track version with brembos before...

now is too early for say anything, please, wait two weeks!
but i think ap is better than brembo because
i don't need more torque, i need the same torque, but
for more time!

 

I am looking forward to your assesment of this bbk.

 

Ok, after more 2000 miles, I have the "first impression"

1. the ap3700 big brake kit looks nice...
nice? very-very nice! everybody say same
expression: impressive!!!

2. good performance, of course
2.1. but modulation is not better than brembos...
2.2. with ds2500 pad, I need a little warm-up...

3. more noises
3.1 clink-clink from pads, I think is normal...
3.2. clonk-clonk from rotors when the temperature
come down after moderate brake and the speed
is reduced at ~50mph: this noise without response
from Stillen and without response -at this
moment- from AP Racing in Spain...

4. vdc not work exactly than brembos...
vdc run correctly, but with sudden reactions...

5. dirty, very dirty
a lot of ferodo in the wheels!


Please, sorry my poor english

 

Thank you for the info

Whats is the issue with the VDC? what kind of sudden reations are you getting?

Thanks,
Az

 

usually VDC appears only appears when I brake in a curve,
I mean, when the interior front wheel, without any weight,
pulls up. It's a situation that i don't cause, because I know
that the VDC is going to try to stop it and I prefer not to
cause it

Yesterday I caused it and I heared a "CLONK" that I won't
cause it any more... The wheel pulled up like many times,
but when the VDC worked I colud hear that noise.

However, when the ABS works, it works in normal conditions,
I mean without strange noises, everything OK.

 

Thank you ... and happy brakeing :-D
