Thumbs up Post pics of your Big Brake Kits!
I searched and didn't see much in the way of pics of BBKs, I am primarily looking for pics installed on your FD behind the wheels.

I'm primarily interested in seeing Stoptech, but all others are welcome

Bump...subscribing to this thread. I'm interested in this as well.

I know there's a lot of talk about whether or not you can maintain the parking brake or not with these kits so i'm interested in that aspect as well.

I looked in to some. Originally the set from Australia but no one in the US is familiar with it. Stoptech can be had for a good price by two vendors but all I really wanted was 2-peice rotors. Now I am thinking RZ front calipers (Mazdacomp discount or used) with two peice Project Mu's SCR Pro's.

I've had Stoptechs on my previous track cars and they've been awsome. I'm planning on buying a set for the RX-7.

Brembo, couldn't get slotted, so they sent me cross-drilled... not my first choice but they've not cracked at the track yet...

I actually just started a business, and we recently rolled out our Big brake kit....tell me what you think. It's very high quality, and will outlast many of our competitors.
*special note* Not recommended for street or offroad use, serious injury may occur.

I got a question cause I am in the process of buying a BBK. Which is the best setup (ie rotors, calipers, pads) for mostly street and track use?
