My Airtekk Big Brake Kit

[green-lantern]

Most people have wore out stock pads with 70k mile old brake fluid. They get a new brake kit with new much more aggressive pads and fresh fluid, no wonder the comparison is so huge, lol.

From the phone.

I know when I flushed the lines and replaced all of the pads and rotors my car stopped like a champ. The only problem was I'd overheat the fronts. Flushing the fluid makes a huge difference on older systems. I had some nasty crap come out of mine.

Nice kit, did they make 3/s specific brackets or did you need to have them made? What was the cost?

By the time I refurbished my Willwood BBK I probably had $1500 in it. In hindsight probably could have had everything brand new. Bonus was my wheels now fit without spacers and my rotors are about 1" wider than stock.

I posted prices already up above. Came with brackets. 3s specific kit, no modification need at all. Even came with special little brackets to mount the stainless lines to the strut assemblies cleanly.

They make those rims in 19's too. I think a 22 offset is what people run when they go that size. I couldn't find anyone else with a 3s online running the 18's with a 40mm offset.

Offset isn't going to change the caliper clearance, looks good though. with 9" rims 40mm is perfect.

What size tire you running? Strongly considering some Enkei wheels

offset will affect clearence because you don't want the spokes hitting the caliper. Offset effets the angle of the spokes in a way depending on the rim. I really lucked out with these wheels and calipers. It was a gamble that paid off. The tires are 265/35/18 BF Goodrich sport comp 2's. I'll see if I can upload the templates to my google drive account if anyone wants to see if they'll clear.

The other thing with the rp03s is they have an inner rib on the backside of the spokes. I'm not exactly sure why, my only guess is to hide the wheel weights.

[Streamln1]

usually doesn't effect the inside shape of the rim, I used to think that too. Suppose it depends on the MFG.

I tried to buy some rp03s about 2 years ago and no one could get them. Everyone said they jad been discontinued. Maybe they stsrted making them again.

This is where I bought them. Via topspeed-pro-performance.com I guess this ebay seller's location is about 5 minutes from a big enkei warehouse that is why he has the lowest prices. He literally drives over there, picks up the product and ships them out. I ordered mine only to get a phone call the next day saying the warehouse didn' thave any left in my offset. So he checked Japan and they did. From there it was just a long wait, but he would update me every few weeks. They came in when he said they would and he had them shipped out that same day.
