Ok... so I've been slacking in the picture dept... but only in that dept..... So here to appease hades.... pics of the front brakes. And the most AWESOME license plate frame I've ever owned. Tomorrow... hopefully we can move onto the Master Cylinder, then the traction control, then the belly pan, then maybe some new tools will be in....


Sooooooooooooooooooo...... these rotors are bigger in diameter than some wheels Stock size rotor on the top, and that'll end up on the 'vert along with the pads that I've loved for a LONG ass time.



And they're only slightly thicker. They measure in @ 13.25"x1.25" DAYUM!!!



New calipers. Wilwood Superlite 6-piston cali's. Go big or go home... and these are HUGE! And they look pretty good too



Just slightly wider to accomodate the thicker rotors and much thicker pads....



And here's what came with the kit. A set of Coleman rotors and custom FastBrakes hats. A fw fittings as well. The cali's didn't come with the kit, I have a good friend who is a Wilwood dealer I got a good deal on those. The brackets... which I don't have pics of, are SUBSTANTIAL. Mounting is kind of a PITA though because of where the threads are located. The bolts must go from the cali into the bracket, and then the bracket mounts to the knuckle. Not a big deal, just a little different.



Notice the distance between the studs and the cali



Oh, and look at that monstore gap between the outside of the cali and the inner diameter of the wheel. Laughable!!!



Slight difference



Yeah... WHAT space!!!!! I actually needed to get a 5mm spacer to offset the wheel enough to clear. I'm not a spacer guy and thought about getting the Superlits Narrows.... but the stance is more aestetically pleasing and she seems to handle the wider stance a wee bit better so we're gonna keep it this way.



Yeah, it ACTUALLY spins... I was pleased



Now, with a bunch of extra stuff being up in that area, we needed a way to keep them all from getting mangled. I've got 12" flex lines that replaced the factory hardline from the strut to the cali. I've also got a 3-core shielded tefzel wire for the traction control as well. In the past, I just had the traction control wire ziptied to the hardline. Obviously can't do that here.... so I cut the tabs off the old old OLD ass struts and built this little piece.



Then I torched and bent it around a tube .25" bigger than the c/o so I could pad it on the inside



And here it is being test fitted with a much shorter line. You'll also note the super sexy little mounting tab specifically for the deutsch connectors..... yup yup!



And to think I put off building that little piece for 3 years and the whole thing was done, both pieces and powdercoated in like 90 minutes... I suck sometimes.

Happy hades?
