not yet, I'm waiting for someone else to come up with one. I've only got one more track day this year, and its road atlanta, which gives plenty of cooling time for the brakes, so hopefully someone...

The balance is fine with Brembos front 6 piston upgrade. I am extremely happy with mine. It uses your stock rotors and just comes with pads, calipers and lines. I get my stuff wholesale, but Lou @...

Yep, it all depends on the circuit. No probe since I upgraded to the front brembos though, and very affordable too! (well under 2000 at wholesale)

That is what puzzles me too. My powdercoating business centers around brake calipers and I have broken down and rebuilt just about every mainstream caliper out there, brembo, akebono, stoptech, AP,...

check your pads after the track day too. I just switched to ferodo DS2500s in the rear to match what came with the front brembos and in 2 and a half days at CMP they were pretty much to the backing...

good question. I suppose if you disassembled and cleaned after every event, but I would think the dust would still eventually eat the seals up, especially under track use. I know that some corvette...

Not at all, they are fully disassembled and then reassembled in the process, so the seals and dustboots never see the oven. Plus, the corvette and 350z both had repowdercoated calipers and no...

all 4 were pretty bad, but the rears had 3 semi reusable boots, only one had a tear in it. The fronts only had one decent one, but I still don't think any of them are in good shape. I'm only going...

I know, especially since I've always considered myself easy on brakes and none of my other cars have experienced this. I think its possibly the relatively small pad size for the caliper. I know the...

I don't really see any reason to upgrade, but I have. I have Rotora slotted rotors. At the first event when my pads wore down to the backing plates, Z1 Motorsports was kind enough to send a driver...
