Re: 6 pot mono block Brembo calliper kit
How badly does having such big front brakes and dinky rear brakes throw off the handling?

Re: 6 pot mono block Brembo calliper kit
I would love to get both the front and rear kits, but I am still trying to get my manual conversion done, and that is worth more at the moment to me then big brake kits
I plan on keeping this car for a long time so maybe a year or 2 down the road I will be getting these. |

Weight transfer shifts forward when braking so at the moment with the 6 pots up front and larger rotors the car stops very well with no handling issues, 2 or 4 pots and larger rotor at the rear would have more of an effect on handling. the brake kit for the front and the kit i'm developing for the rear is based on a car 200kgs + heavier then the svx and with 335kw at the flywheel with same size brake booster upgrading the rear will be the test of whether brake bias needs adjusting but i think it will be fine

Re: 6 pot mono block Brembo calliper kit
it's not likely any one would just run 18s on the front then stock rears lol

Re: 6 pot mono block Brembo calliper kit
i wasn't quite sure how to answer that question, i assumed you would be having matching 18's at the rear

Re: 6 pot mono block Brembo calliper kit
There were different size rotors he looked into using which would fit different wheels. Limiting this kit to 18" in my opinion will limit his customer base more than it already is.

there are two problems one is that even sti brembo brakes run 17" rims and two part of the efficency of better stopping power is the increased torque of a larger diameter rotor but ill see what i can do, is anyone interested in a small kit?
