Finally my new brakes arrive

My new calipers for a 13" brake conversion arrived yesterday. Looks like I will be spending today installing them if it warms up a little. Here is a pic

I can't wait to see them on the car. No more puny rotors behind my 18" Saleens.

Looks awesome! Is that star painted on or it's it a decall?

Very pretty.

The star is powder coated. I ordered them from Discbrakesrus

They can either drill the rotors for 5X4.25 or 5X4.5 bolt pattern or both.

:thumbsup: Did you order the parts and powder coating both at the same site? Looks great. We look forward to the installed pictures.

Yes I ordered the parts powder coated. They have many colors and can print pretty much anything you want on the calipers.

Well we installed the brakes this weekend and it went pretty smooth. I just had to trim about 1/4" from the side of the flex hose connection on the passenger caliper. Nice part about having the bleed screw right on the top was that the calipers auto bled from gravity, no pumping required. Here is a couple of pics.

Driving around they feel great so far I will see how well they work when I get them heated up in some twisties.
