Dual piston fronts
Single piston Rear
11.5 front rotor
10.9 rear

I think im right on the rotors. But not 100%

Why do you ask.

looking for an upgrade. thanks man thats just what i was looking for. reps

stopping on a dime is the shiznit

MikeD05GT · Oct 24, 2008

well that, and im getting tired of my whole car shaking when i step on the brakes (warped rotors) im thinking basic cobra upgrade with some ceramic pads would be a affordable and nice upgrade??

330CubeGt · Oct 24, 2008

I cant go with the bigger rotors because of my rims but im going to be doing some slotted rotors with some hawk pads (One Day)

MikeD05GT · Oct 24, 2008

i was never a believer on the slotted rotors for the street. i think the bigger the rotor surface and the more gripping power with equal better stopping...

I have a cobra and i got the cobra pistons in the fronts with brand new brembo slotted. trust me. slots make a difference over oem, doesn't matter the size; you'll still feel a difference

don't forget putting on the SS lines and make sure your wheels will clear those brakes.

MikeD05GT · Oct 24, 2008

im pretty sure they will. it says 17 or bigger. and i will def go SS lines. doc, was it you who said you can go to any parts store and get all the stuff for a 98 cobra and it would be alot cheaper then getting the "cobra kit" ?

I believe you need a different caliper bracket to mount the cobra calipers.

HMUSN · Oct 25, 2008

^ you do.

I would look into our local forum J to see if you can get a take off from a Cobra or Mach guy to be honest. That would be your cheapest bet.

MikeD05GT · Oct 25, 2008

im not really looking for "cheapest" i would like brand new though doc. i was just asking if i could go to a parts store and get the same thing

HMUSN · Oct 25, 2008

you should be able to get everything but the calipers and ss lines at any store.

MikeD05GT · Oct 25, 2008

the rotors would be the 13in? and is the "kit" even a good upgrade? im content with the stock stuff...its just the rotors are mad warped...

HMUSN · Oct 25, 2008

well if you just want the rotors ( GT) that would be your cheapest bet but the Cobra Kit is def worth the money man.

MikeD05GT · Oct 26, 2008

ok, thats the info i was looking for. thanks jon

HMUSN · Oct 26, 2008

any time man. lmk if you need a hand putting them on.

MikeD05GT · Oct 26, 2008

HMUSN · Oct 26, 2008
