Project Mu
Brake Piston Upgrade Kit

Very Nice, much appreciated and rep added.

Wow, great thread. :tup:

I seen this last week. Piston upgrade
Project Mu - Upgrade Piston Kit - Nengun Performance

Thanks guys- I'm working on getting the rest of the guide done soon.

+1 rep...that alcon kit is pure sex!!

nice find!..interesting.

I'll update this as soon as I get a chance. I'm still working on the rest of the BBK and brake pads.

If anyone can find specs on the two different Endless BBK that would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone know anything about Racing Brake, EBC, or Relentless Autosports? Those look like the only companies that make 2-piece floating rotors for the Akebono kit, and unfortunately I know nothing of those brands or their equipment.

Unfortunately I do not know much about R.A., however I do speak from experience when I say that Racing Brake makes very good, track-proven rotors. Both RB and EBC are reputable track proven companies with years of experience.
