6 pot mono block Brembo calliper kit

['E']

Hey Everyone

Some of you may have seen my post in the "down under" section for the 6 pot Brembo calliper kit i have developed http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=60084 well i have been working away trying to reduce the price for the kit and this is the where i am at......

2 x 6 pot mono block Brembo callipers
2 x mounting blocks
2 x Brembo slotted rotors 355 x 32
8 x mounting bolts in high tensile steel

AUD$2,500

This kit will fit SVX and STI

['E']

FYI i am also developing a Brembo 4 pot calliper rear set as well

The kit also includes two sets of pads

How badly does having such big front brakes and dinky rear brakes throw off the handling?

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.

started working on the rear kit tonight

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

hopefully i'll have the rear kit done by the time you are ready

yes minimum 18" rims for the front to fit 355 rotors and 6 pots

it's not likely any one would just run 18s on the front then stock rears lol

i wasn't quite sure how to answer that question, i assumed you would be having matching 18's at the rear

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.

ahhh i see what you meant now, the 6 pot kit i've made and the 4 pot kit im making for the rear ive for me and i am offering what ive done to anyone interested. i run big wheels and i want big brakes im not trying to please anyone but i can look at a 4 pot calliper kit for a smaller rim.

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?
