Default Stop Tech Front BBK

Finally upgraded the front brakes. Got the StopTech Front BBK with 4-pot calipers and 14" two-piece floating rotors. This kit is bias balanced with the OEM rear rotors. I painted the rear OEM calipers black. I have StopTech street pads up front and EBC Red Stuff in the rear with Power Slot slotted rotors. For track sessions I will use CarbonTech all around.

Installation note - I had the shop (Mach V Motorsports) do the installation. Was pretty straight forward except that the calipers didn't fit centered evenly over the rotors and the kit does not include any shims. After discusions with StopTech they wouldn't send shims or believe there was a problem. So we ordered a set of shims from Wilwood. The difference in brake feel and stopping power is incredible!
