GI: Big brake kits, floating rotors!

[green-lantern]

Am I doing this right? I think I am. It looks like the 355mm kit would rub on my moda r6's (18x9 w/ 38mm offset). I need to track down the 330mm front template now. I'm just not sure how much of an upgrade it will be considering it's only 15mm bigger than the stock 2g fronts.

It sort of looks like you are but I don't think these stuck out much further than 2nd gen brakes. After looking at mine they do seem more square than stock right where it looks like it's hitting on yours.

I pm'd a few people on here and someone sent it to me. What is your email? I can shoot it over. Now if anyone has a 330mm front template my email is fastfalcon94@gmail.com

Thanks that would be great my email is unlogic@unlogic.se

So there is another group buy going? I too would like a template for the 330 and 355. I have 5Ziegen 18x9.5 + 35's.

Here are the templates fastfalcon94 sent me:

A year and no one is interested... :-( How do we contact XYZ directly to purchase?

[fastfalcon94]

The rotors and brakes are the same as Airtekk which you can buy easier in the US. That's how I actually found out about Airtekk. I contacted XYZ because I didn't like their logo and they redirected me to Airtekk (see way below). Airtekk is good about selling you stuff but their support really sucks. I had zero issues with front setup (I didn't opt for floating rotors, used their normal ones) but the rears were a different problem.

The rear brake lines they sent me were about 4-5 inches too short. It took me 2 months of dealing with them trying to get longer brake lines. They would never respond to my emails or calls. They lied about ship dates. Told me the new lines came in but were also wrong, that the guy in charge of it was in Russia, etc.. After 2 months of the run around they had told me they shipped them but wouldn't give me a tracking number. So after a week of calling/emailing/texting every single day with no tracking number from them, I sent the short lines to Spiegler on a Wednesday to have custom ones made. I sent Airtekk my tracking number and told them I'd be sending them an invoice. 2 days later the short lines arrived at Spiegler on a Friday. That very same day Airtekk sends me a tracking number:/ So I had to pay Spiegler some money to ship the short lines back to me (I had also sent them my regular stainless lines and wanted those back otherwise I would have just told them to toss them). I checked the Airtekk tracking number and sure enough they had shipped them the day before (Thursday which was a week and 1 day after they were supposedly "shipped", and after I had already given them a tracking number showing I sent the wrong lines to Spiegler). So fast forward and the lines finally come and are the right ones. I get them on, go to drive my car and something is rubbing in the back.

The inner drum stuck out farther than the stock rotors so it was rubbing the backing of the ebrake assembly. It cost me $70 to have a machine shop take some off of it to fit. I sent Airtekk a bill and pictures 2 weeks ago and haven't heard anything back from them. The car does stop well but I'm waiting for an alignment before I test it more.








Email sent to XYZ....


Hey,

A member of our 3000gt forum (3sgto.org) recently worked a group buy for your calipers. A few people bought them and were happy with the kits/instructions/performance. However a lot of people (myself included) did not buy them because we are not a fan of the big XYZ caliper logo. Would it be possible to order brake kits without the XYZ logo engraved in the calipers? It would save machine time and I bet it would get you some more sales.

Here is the thread in case you are curious of the discussion.

Possibly interested in rotors too need to know the specs for thickness and offset of the hat
