Yup, same ones. What are you running for spring rates and sways? I'm still experimenting by feel on the street only. Too many problems with the car this year to really get some good track data so I'm looking for suggestions from people that look like they got thier shit dialed in.

Of course, the calipers would have to be modified for the extra width of the rotors, plus an adapter bracket had to be designed and tested through FEA and on the road. He had thought about building a kit to sell, but liability issues reared its ugly head. He just didn't want any chances of lawsuits, especially when it comes to brakes. The plan sort of went into hibernation, and that was it.

It took me almost a year of gentle persuasion to get the ball rolling on my set, because of his concern, which is understandable. Over the past 2 months he has been putting together my set, and next weekend is the magic day. If you are serious about this kit, send me a PM and I'll have more information.

That's Frijolee's doing right? He PM'ed me about my input on that a LONG time ago over on TeamFC3S. I liked the idea but I had my own concerns about them. I really like the design so yeah Johnson, PM me about some details and costs becuase I am definately doing a BBK over the winter. Right now I'm leaning towards a "custom" FastBrakes setup and something else kinda special for the rear. So yeah, anything that you don't want to share, PM me and it won't go anywhere.
