StopTech Big Brake Kit
 
Hey everyone!

We just wrapped this StopTech BBK install up over the weekend. How does 6 piston calipers on 15 inch rotors in the front sound? What about 4 pistons on a 14 inch rotor in the back? This car will have no problem stopping ;) StopTech has always made a great product paying special attention to details. These bad boys went on without any problems and finished perfectly. The pictures speak for themselves. This is a beautiful kit, performs great, and we are currently running an overstock special on them here!

Check the install pics out and let us know what you think!

very sexy, i was thinking of purchasing the kits myself.
where did you buy em?
and how long did the installation take?
i did hear you had to saw off the flimsy brake guards to make them fit?

Sharif@Forged 10-27-2009 08:26 AM

StopTech is offering some incredible specials to us, so now is your chance to get these kits at unheard of pricing.

We are StopTech dealers, so Decker@Forged can help you with pricing.

They ARE nice, aren't they?

We're an authorized StopTech dealer, so you can purchase them directly from us :)

The installation is about 5 hours including thorough bleeding and cutting the rear dust shields.

Hey Decker, I didnt realize you moved over to Forged! Hope all goes well! If I didnt already have a Wicked kit coming my way that would have been pictures of my car ;)

Waiting for a PM for full kit.

I see in the picture that the front backing plate is being cut up, why is this necessary if the rotors are 355mm (14") the same size as stock? Different rotor offset?

Anyone tried the calipers with 18" wheels? I'll be using the 18" wheels with race tires in the spring, if Forgestar delivers by then that is.

Which (if any) lines does this kit include?

pm price. won't be any time soon unfortunately, but definitely could use some price-driven enticing ;)

Decker@Forged 10-27-2009 10:21 AM

PM's coming shortly!

The rear dust shield needs to be cut so the caliper/caliper bracket can clear ;)

This is StopTech's recommendation as far as wheel fitment is concerned:

Quote:

Kits usually require these minimum wheel diameters:

328mm rotor (12.9 inches) - 17 inch wheel
332mm rotor (13 inches) - 17 inch wheel
355mm rotor (14 inches) - 18 inch wheel
380mm rotor (15 inches) - 19 inch wheel

StopTech provides all required stainless steel lines with their kits.

In the picture, Kerry is actually trimming the rear dust shields. They will interfere with the rear rotor if they remained.
