Finally got my brakes in!!! After about 4 years of wanting...dying...trying to get big brakes for the Cavy it has finally happened!!!
Sure I could have done it a few years ago but the supercharger came out and well...I wanted that more!! So after saving the money up I pulled the trigger and now I have them!!!
Up front will be Wilwoods and in the rear will be SSBC. I am getting the SSBCs powder coated black next week so they match the Wilwoods discs...the caliper was powder coated at SSBC.
Want to thank Karo for keeping on SSBC for me too...he is a great saleman, great at customer service and good friend! Thanks Karo!!
On to the pics.....
...I can't wait to see what they look behind the wheels!!
Comments always welcome...good or bad!
Eh...old man with a Corvette now...it was bound to happen sooner rather than later right?
Nice !!! The rears look like the same size as the fronts.
the wilwoods can come in all black? looks like a slick surface to be usin for brakin. congrats on the purchase. get em installed already.

Alexis: Dustin, you're ghey, lol. I am better. I have tits, and tits rule all.

gonna be an awesome addition to an already amazing ride!
big brakes are awesome, definitely one of the best mods on my car
those will look tits on that car
forget the looks, you'll be safe now!
awesome parts, definitely a fan.
Wanting a nice set of black 17's with mint tires? Pm me.
Keeps getting better and better man!
That's 4 people I know of now that'll be bolting SSBCs up on the rear so far in 08. One of which only got one of those hard lines for the rear, yet you have two...that's kinda odd.

Yep...12 inch rotors all around! The Bear and SSBC front kits are 13 inch but I wanted the Wilwoods...I think it'll look great together!

Yeah...odd huh? I never saw them like this but sure once the pads hit that surface it will be gone! Should help with rust though around the rest of the rotor...hence why I'm getting the SSBCs powder coated as well!! I've seen some rusty SSBCs!!!

See the black hole in my sig? I'm reshaping it to your car, getting you tanked at the bash, and jacking the keys.
Fair warning.
