I would like to do the stop tech kit, but with my 20" rims I needs some big @ss rotors/caliper kit. Any suggestions? I have things I would perfer to do, but it does look crappy

 

Well if you are willing to fork out the cash, how about a full blowen StopTECH Big Brake Kit?

 

Yeah a Big Break Kit should do the job. Just be ready to spend $1600 (front only) to $2k+.

 

Oh yeah...I forgot to mention...MONEY IS A BIG FACTOR!!!!! That setup Kevin has is what I really want but 1600 ish isn't as bad as I had imagined. Right now Nitrous is my next goal. Anyone know how to install NO2? You just plug-er-in and go right?!

 

Impressions? I had this installed on my car and have driven it for about a week now. Nice upgrade over stock as far as stopping power. I think the best part of this upgrade may be the brake lines as you can really feel the difference when applying the brake pedal.

 

I had the same impression when I installed my upgrade. But I still wish I did the rotors for the "look" factor.

 

Brick-Z: I haven't even installed the kit yet. I'm deployed returning sometime this month. I'll leave my review once I get them one and tested.

 

Well I'm home... I'll be installing the kit shortly. I'll give my reiviews once its on. I'm sure I'm going to love it.

 

You better put those on the tank otherwise you might not beat me

 

WOW!!! First and foremost: A big THANKS to Kevin (kevinapex), Sean (hr2burn), Will (DevildogCO1), & Blake (Colorado S14) for the help/ doing the install!!!

This kit is awesome!!! Bite come much sooner and peddle feel is much better! If you want a nice street break kit upgrade, and you don't have the Brembos, I say go for this kit! I love it!

Problems: 1) Left rear pad clip/ retainer somehow bent and was rubbing against the rotor. Notthing a grinder didn't fix.

Installed Pics: Coming soon!

 

glad u liked it.. i am liking the brakes as well.. Question to others: is it normal for the brakes to squeek a little when braking? I remember reading somewhere that it is okay.

 

Thanks and performance pads will have a little noise to them.

 

I stumbled on this deal on 12.8 track rotors for the guys shopping replacements. I have the slotted dimpled 12.8's on my 300, at these prices it makes the rotors practically disposable .

$155.00 shipped -

Just a heads up, I have no affiliation with this company.

 

I don't know if that a deal or not since I've never research Brembo replacements. Four rotor for $620 is crazy though. I bought my StopTech Stage II for $630 shipped, but of course that for the non Brembo brake system.

 

Apply some squeak stop (CRC) to the backside of the pads, I have had mixed results. Did you sand your old rotor then do a "burn in"?
