Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Brakes First(I think) 13" Wilwood kit..INSTALLED!

Well, after some trouble with our friends at UPS I finally got my 13? Wilwood kit installed. The whole install took about 3 hours. I had to shim both sides and that took most of the time. I got the Kit from Todd at TCE and he was very helpful and even answered the phone every time I called! I can?t say that about some of the other shops I?ve dealt with. One of the nice things about this kit is I can switch calipers and rotors at anytime.

Here is some info on the kit.

Wilwood NDL calipers with Tan pads(street)
13? zinc washed rotor with aluminum hats. Cross drilled (yeah, yeah..I know?I like the way they look)

Weight, 18 pounds. The Baer kit weighs in at 29.

I?ve had them on for all of an hour so I?ll get back to you guys on how they perform.

Please check Todd's site for prices and more info.
On his site there is mention of modifing the steering knuckle. Please ignore that.

Here are some pics..more to come

Those are sweet!!! How much $$$$??¿¿

WOW! Those look amazing!

I WANT you I NEED you - OH baby OH BABY!

Those look awesome! You could stop a semi-truck with those...bet the price will stop most of us too.

warmonger

Not to bad, $1,075 without the cross drilling. No, it's not for everyone. But it is a really good price for 4 piston calipers with aluminum hatted rotors.

that might just be the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.../tear/

shaun nice brakes! what happened to the borbets!??

That brake kit looks sick dude. Not to be materialistic and all, but i like the way the "wilwood" logo shows out too. Make sure you post the SIGNIFICANT changes in your brake pedal feel and stopping power. Convince a few of us. I may just pull the trigger myself and do it. Good luck with 'em.
I'd go with the cross drilled ones too!

those look awesome man. i guess it doesnt matter about the direction of the slotted rotors, but dont they usually go the other way?
