Brake cooling for Nismo bumpers

Spooler

The AP Racing kit for front and rear are in the works now from Essex parts. I am waiting on a few parts to be completed, then I go for the install. They aren't cheap though. They will have AP Radical calipers.

Finally! Jeff is great to work with. Yeah, the Pro5000 calipers are pretty much their go-to, and for good reason.

I'm assuming they will be going with a 372mm x 32-34mm front ring, to ensure 18" wheel clearance?

I am not sure yet. They didn't give me specific's when they were measuring my car. They did say I will not need my brake ducts anymore. LOL I guess the AP rotors move a ton of air. I did tell them the go to wheel for our cars are 18".
I am sitting here waiting on the machine shop to finish up on the brackets. It should be sometime this month. Just hang out for a little while. I can't wait to get some quality brakes.

They do. They are always 72-vane rotors. I have a Pro-5000 PC9660 kit on my M3. It's seen countless track days, and still on the same original rotors 7 years later. Crazy.

The caliper profile is much smaller than the OE caliper, so it allows them to upsize the rotor alot with the same or better clearance than OE. I'd bet on the 372, but anything will be more than adequate.

That sounds damn good. I am sure the rotors will last a long time for me. I just want to have fun and not worry about my brakes taking a dump.
