HOLY BRAKES Batman

[Rick Glass]

Just got to experience the new tune and the custom brake pads on Kirk's 2010...... Serious serious improvement over stock.

 

Now if we could just get something that good for the older SHO's.......  As much as I love the Cobra brakes on my 99..... this new setup is insane.

I agree, Kirk demonstrated for me a few weeks ago. I'm glad I had my feet planted on the floorboards!

Well the 18" or 20" wheels on the EcoSHO sure makes brake upgrades a lot more flexible...

There is a market to build a brake kits that goes under 18" or even 20" wheels for the new SHO, an upgrade that requires 18" wheels would greatly reduce potential market on the Gen 3 however, I say maybe 15 - 20% of Gen 3's have moved to 18's, and what percentage of those are interested in bigger brakes???

I don't personally see a plausible business case to develop big brakes for the Gen 3.  There are some things you can do to the Gen 3 and still fit under the 16" wheels but not too much....

From someone who spends too much time just reading this list...

More details on Kirk's brakes? 

Is putting something like that on our cars fantasy, like putting in a manual tranny, like swapping slightly modified parts, or a bolt on?

Cobra Brakes are the best thing for the Gen 3, they will stop better thank most others out there.. Id say about 5% on gen 3’s left have them on..

 

The ECOSHO uses 19’s or 20” could have been a typo not sure.. But the new pad material is quite amazing!  I somewhat started on the SS lines but been to busy with other things to finish up.. Tyring to get all work completed by July 1, so I have 2 weeks to get my own stuff completed.. hopefully…..

 

BTW, ill have the thing in the mail to you this week, just email me your address off list again.
