The info I got a while back was no, these require 19's.

The real question is whether they will fit with the stock rays....

They do not fit under 18 inch wheels.

So whats the Pad selection like?
Currently, the only pad available for the Front 6 Piston Kit are Ferodo DS25HP's (very similar to DS2500's). We will have Ferodo DS3000's available soon. A larger pad selection will follow, but the backing plate is so large a lot of companies are not able to make the pads yet.

That is an excellent question. I will see if I can have this tested.

Off topic a little. But if you have the Standerd AP BBK 6 piston and need Carotech pads the P# for the pads are CPCT7040. Doesn't matter what compound.

With racing calipers, they usually have a standard pad shape and this allows many companies to utilize the shape and create difference compounds.

We prefer endless pads, but many other companies like hawk, ferodo, pagid and more will make pads for them.

I just found they will for sure fit the Factory NISMO Rays. The clearance on the normal factory Rays are pretty much the same so I would assume so. If you are interested I can always send you the template to test it.

Can I trade you my older AP's for these!
We can't do a straight trade for these obviously. I did get management to okay a credit towards these brakes if you wanted to upgrade. I could offer a $500 Credit for the Front AP kit and $300 for the Rear AP kit.

Not to cut in Mark, but I'll pay mdxj a few hundred more :-)

And he can help out a forum member! Lol

Please do! It is definitely better for him if he can sell to another forum member. Because we would have to refurbish and resell the kit with new pads and rotors it makes it better for everyone to sell private party :)

BlkNismo 02-17-2014 06:20 PM
These look awesome. Kinda wish they stepped up the front rotors to 15"

Team_STILLEN 02-17-2014 06:27 PM
These barely fit in 19's as is. 15 inch rotors would have been insane. They already stop the car like beast.

Alstann 02-27-2014 01:33 PM
No need for larger rotors if we don't need more heat capacity after brake cooling. :)

SPOHN 02-27-2014 03:49 PM
My Standerd AP 6 piston BBK is perfect and only sees track time. 8 track days and the rotors look great.

wstar 02-27-2014 04:24 PM
Yeah I'm an AP convert as well, I've been really happy with the existing BBK from AP/Stillen for 18" wheels. I'm just about done with my first set of front rings (new ones are sitting here waiting, but I think I can squeeze in one more weekend before I switch). They've been on since last April, so something in the ballpark of 15-20 trackdays on those front rings (I'd have to go look it up to know for sure).

mdxj 02-27-2014 06:38 PM
I love my AP's but these new ones are way outside of my budget. I got mine from forum member and other then the paint being faded they have been great. Had a caliper stick not to long ago but the pads were really dusty and I was DD'ing them
