Who makes this kind of brake kit.
I would like to know if anyone makes a front brake kit that includes: A new set of improved/bigger calipers, larger cross drilled/slotted rotors, braided brake lines, with or without premium pads. I know about 1LE but didn't want to change out spindals if possible.

i think you are going to have to change spindles with any of the brake upgrades. i know baers kit includes new spindles.

Nice looking setup Jerry
. Got a couple questions if you don't mind
. Which calipers are those? They look like the billet Superlight IIas but I'm not sure. Is that the hub they make for their light duty kit for thirdgens? And did you make that hat for that rotor? Last question (lol), is that a Wilwood rotor and what diameter is it?
Thanks,
Matt
(I'm working on putting together a similar kit with a friend)

The calipers are 1.75 piston billet NDL for .810 thick rotors.
This setup is for my 92 Z28 street-strip car so the light hubs will work for this, The hubs in the picture are new forged hubs not like the old cast ones people have used in the past.
The Hat is from a 57 Chevy kit for 8 bolt rotors.
The rotor is 12.19 X .810 thick and is larger than Baers street kit.
My next project is a 90 for road racing that will have Global west billet hubs, 6 piston calipers and 13.19 X 1.375 48 curved fin rotors.

We pushed the topic on how to get a "low cost brake" in several
postings way back (firechicken check our posts)
jerry nice systhem there!
in about 2 weeks we´ll get our 14 " (megapizza rotor ) with Monsterbrakes! Again thanks to saddam (this fu..) us costum is in delay cause they chek all stuff going out carefully!
The setup is a alcon from Baer with a 2 piece rotor!
In the pic a willwood set up we use at the track!
Jerry did you "just" put a bigger rotor on that ???
Of course with another adapter???
Somebody in here running a dual rear brake set (2 calipers)???

That last pic you posted with the 2 calipers, what caliper is that on the right upper side? It looks alot like the caliper on my Borg Warner 9 bolt rearend, but I dont know if its the good PBR caliper or if its the junk Iron caliper. Just wondering. Thanks!
