New front 12.6" Big Brake Kit

kwd2kSE · Nov 22nd, 2003, 07:59 AM

Matt and I have finished the design and test fitting for the front Big Brake Kit(BBK) on my car. Its designed to work on 3rd,4th, and 5th Gen Maxima's-different brackets were necessary to accomplish this. The fit is perfect on either set of my wheels with no clearance issues, no wheel spacers, no control arm grinding, just bolt it on. Here's the link that Matt has posted on the .Org which includes pictures on my car and all details of whats included in the kits that are for sale and all optional pieces. I'll post pictures of the completed kit on my car in the next couple of weeks-waiting on powercoating the calipers, and the custom stainless steel brake lines are shipping Monday.

Yeah, the new front brake system sure will make a difference. The new rear system going in next month with 12.375" rotors will probably help a lot too!!

But I'm stuck with the stock rear calipers. Oh well, it sure does look vastly better than the stockers behind the VOLK's, and will help keep front to rear brake bias close to stock.

Matt and I are planning to put the front kit on my car next week to have for the meet. All the remaining parts should be in by Monday, including the custom length Goodrich brake lines to make this work. Give everyone a chance to see what I've been up to lately.

I love that kit. Now I just need to win the lottery.
