I got the entire kit from the seller.
The fitment is awesome!!! Clear my v1 nismo wheel without any problem.
Each caliper is about 4lb lighter than stock Akebono. Pads are about twice the thickness.
Definitely recommended for whoever track their frequently.

Had a crazy busy month, so totally missed these pics, but man it is satisfying to see them on another car! I'm glad you were able to get them all installed already, and hope to see some updates on how you like them next time you have a track day!

EDIT:
Still have 1 left.
Am planning another small batch for spring next year, if it sells.

DarkJak · 12-30-2021, 09:34 PM

Last one sold!
If you are interested for the spring, let me know, so I can plan out another run.

Can you post your #, I'd like to message you directly about this. We have a Stillen Radi-Cal setup which is discontinued, but we need rotor replacements. We have the templates for the 370x36 and 360x28 rotors, but Essex won't tell us which blanks to use for replacements. (they're anti anything having to do with Stillen's prior setups)

If you have the rotor templates, talk to Alex at Brypar in Sydney (Australia). He can match pretty much any rotor and rotor hat.

www.brypar.com or facebook.com/brypar they do a lot of motorsport rotors for the Oz GT3 championship and lots of top line race series here.

If you do not want the cost that comes with AP rotor rings, OR someone like BRYPAR to make some from their own blanks. then the VE and VF Holden Commodore HSV came with AP 6-pot calipers and DBA do a 5000-series rotor ring to suit (368mm (14.5") x 32mm. I know you wanted 36mm fronts. but the DBA's could be an option.

Check out DBA performance catalog available to download here:https://dba.com.au/dba-catalogues/do...df-catalogues/

I can see at row 120 on page 17 of the performance catalogue there is a 370x36mm rotor ring

The alternative is to go to AP in the UK as their 14.5" x 36mm is here:
https://apracing.com/race-car/brake-...36mm-thickness

Part no (left and right) is CP5772-6072/6073

Details: https://apracing.com/race-car/brake-...p5772-60726073

I think you can invite Essex to "go forth and multiply". Similar research required for rears.

Great info man, thank you for this. We're okay paying for AP's, the Jhood rotors are amazing, its just trying to find a direct replacement has been difficult since Stillen lost the contract and Essex took over. All the brackets were proprietary to Stillen, so Essex has has to "start over" with the kits, which they aren't using the same sizes.

We have all the templates PDF's for wheel fitments for clients, so should help with the rotor info.

DarkJak · 06-30-2022, 05:55 PM

I had someone who wanted a set, so I had another small batch made.
I have two sets extra, ready to ship immediately!
Prices for manufacturing rose a tiny bit, and shipping as well, since last time, but I'll honor my previous price here through July 4.

Right now, CP9668 caliper prices are cheaper than ever thanks to exchange rates, so I highly encourage taking advantage of that through APMotorsports or Demon Tweeks.

DarkJak · 07-25-2022, 03:32 PM

Bump! Also, I totally missed the previous posts here. The Stillen Street Radical kits used rotor rings that are near impossible to find now.

Paragon has a couple:
https://paragonbrakes.com/370mm-roto...6mm-thickness/
They are lower vane count than most newer AP Rings (48 vs 72).
Can also change to 372x34 with new hats and a 1mm spacer on the brackets. I think losing 2mm of air gap would be worth it. Might even be able to use the hats I already made for this kit.

DarkJak · 08-03-2022, 03:51 PM

BUMP, have two sets of this kit around. It's been a big upgrade for anyone coming from the Akebonos and feedback's been great so far! Caliper prices are also super low right now thanks to how strong the dollar is against the euro.

DarkJak · 08-12-2022, 07:17 PM

Bump

DarkJak · 08-25-2022, 04:13 PM

Bump. (Trying to clear these out to help fund rear brake development)

DarkJak · 09-07-2022, 09:02 AM

Bump. Best exchange rate in a while for GBP to USD

I'm happy to help get all parts consolidated for you, too.

DarkJak · 09-20-2022, 02:49 PM

Bump, still have two sets, ready to go.
