New front brake setup in the works


Recommended Posts

Hey all. I've been slowly gathering the necessary items for my front brake upgrade in the near future. I will purchase the actual brake kit once I finish the paint job on the Z, ;)

 

Brake kit will be this one:

Silver Mine Motors

 

However, I do have some goodies already purchased and put together.

 

79-81 280xz MC from Oreillys

 

It's Acardone part# 11-1837

ACardone

 

I also purchased a full reservoir set and proportioning valve from Wilwood.

Can't wait to put it together in the next few months :D

What rear calipers does Silvermine use, all their add says is 500hp stock calipers so I guess its a secret.

 

Quoted from:

Bajaracer's Thread

 

This rear kit uses the stock calipers, pads and rotors from a Mustang gt500. The calipers are in the same position that ford designed them to be, on the gt500. We have simply put them on a z car in the same position with a custom bracket.
