Upgrading non-sport brakes
I was wondering if it is possible and what it would take to upgrade the non-sport brakes (particularly calipers). Any insight would be appreciated.
|
Im sure one of the vendors should be able to get you a BBK (big brake kit). Which if you want to upgrade your calipers thats what you'll have to do. Check out the vendor section and hit up thier individual websites...take your pick and PM them.

You can just upgrade the rotors since there isn't just a big selection of calipers for the non-sport rotors.
|
The best deal going right now IMO is the f/r sport brake upgrade package from concept z. That's the route I'm going.
Edit: in case I wasn't clear the kit is the brakes from the sport package. And yes it will fit under the stock 18's. |

install was very easy. only thing you need to do is trim the lip off the rear dust shields, and cut around for the larger calipers. bleeding was easy also. I did it myself with just a long piece of rubber vacuum hose into an empty gatorade bottle. Did 8 pumps on each bleeder screw, 2 times in a row.
Feels great, big improvement over the base brakes. |
Probably a dumb question but if you upgrade to sport calibers do u also have to upgrade to the sport rotors the reason I ask is I can get the calibers alone right now from the dealer for 730 for all for with my shop discount
