Hello all, I have spoken with Brian at Fastbrakes and the fitment for the new brake kit is underway at Basch Acura Service in AZ. If all goes well the design phase will start next week. The Fastbrake kit will be constructed using high quality Wilwood components.(as are all of their kits)Check out their products at www.fastbrakes.com. I know a few members of the list know Brian and have a first had knowledge of the quality of his products. We need to see how many are interested to see how many kits need to be devolped on the first batch. My latest email from Brian is attached. Please feel free to email me at [email protected] or Brian at [email protected] if you have any questions or need any additional info. Thanks.
Jason,
I'm heading over to Basch this afternoon and should be able to start the design phase this weekend if all goes as planned. Here's a brief run down of what I plan to offer:
13" directional vane rotors (thickness will depend on room available, but it will be close to the stock width of 28mm) w/aluminum mounting hats
6 piston differential bore calipers
aluminum mounting brackets(it may be a radial mount, depending on room available)
These will be for the front only, I'll have to see what I can do about an upgraded rear rotor, but the stock rear caliper will have to be used due to the parking brake design.
I have a ball park for the estimated costs(kind of redundant) at $1600. This may change a bit depending on my cost, but I generally come in pretty close to what I estimate.
You can tell others of the progress if you wish, and please have them let me know if they are interested as I need to know how many of the various parts to make for the first run.
Thanks,
Brian H
