LMAO, I was bored the other day so I bought two cans of bright red brake caliper paint and sprayed all my calipers. I dont think it stops any better but I have the Brembo look for a fraction of the price of real thing.

 

where in the PNW are you?

btw, you should check out the cascade crew website.

but i am thinking that this thread ain't goona make it too long.

 

Geez, why didn't I think of this instead of spending months hanging wilwoods on my car

 

You know, a big rear wing just might make that thing go faster...might wanna look into that too.


Ed

 

look at your brakes.


now look at the brakes of the mini van or econo car next to you


see how they are bigger?




we have tiny POS brakes. i wouldnt want to show them off.

 

Painted stock calipers look nothing like the real thing, and neither do wilwoods

 

Well, I happen to like the look of my wilwoods.

 

for the "look" you need a bigger caliper.

that looks too dinky.

and the damn pad area looks like it doesnt go in far enough... it just doesnt "look" right.




im sure they work great though.

 

I would love to see what kit will fit our cars OTHER than wilwood that YOU would consider to be the real thing?

 

i dont think hes happy with anything other then a bright red 6 piston Brembo affair..........



i know id like to have one.... heck some nice 330mm rotors from a 120mm bolt pattern BMW would look nice............and some porsche 6piston brembo calipers........with porsche cast into them.................

 

This looks dinky How big do you think Brembo's are?

 

haha, funny.

 

YES! it looks dinky when you can only see it from a dead side view..



theres a reason the word look was in quotes....




look at it from a dead side view, like they do when you see it when the wheel is on it... it looks smaller then it is....



when you have some dork talking about how it needs to look "right" or "like the real thing" they want to see a whole lot of caliper thickness.


that wilwood looks smaller from the side then it is..





hehe, in anycase, i'll shuddup now.. i kno you're the one selling them thru spohn, so anything negitive towards them you're going to have to defend... so i'll just rephrase for everyone.


want to stop good... thoes brakes should do it.
want to look like you stop good? you may want somthing that looks alot bigger.


edit.

there isnt anything that looks alot bigger. atleast nothing in a kit... heh

also... whos trying to impress the ***** dork that wants them to look big (and heavy)... wanna stop good... get somthing like alloys kit.




edit again:

or dont get his kit, make your own with the other brakes and stop ALMOST as good... and be able to use parts from any auto parts store.....
