2012 gt premium auto...brembos possible?

[Swoope]

I agree with you some what. But look at the big dollar import cars. They make the Bembo kit look like it belongs on a ESCORT!!
Bigger rotors all the way around will help no matter how technical you talk.
I have the tires already TOYO R88s.

then you should know tires stop the car.. the deceleration of a car on r compounds vs street tires is amazing.

the brembos would play a part in this after a couple of stops. note if your are going to track events the brembos are a good idea..

beers :beer:

But isn't that just bushing durometer hardness change, as a part of a complete handling package tune? I'm pretty sure they dimensionally the same...

Not sure of the technical mumbo jumbo associated but I was checking out a brembo car a friend of mine picked up a couple weeks back and his LCAs are larger and painted silver compared to the cute little LCAs on my non brembo car that are painted black. Both 2011s BTW.

The Brembo cars come with GT500 LCAs.

GEEZ! I thought you guys were talking about the front lower control arms!:rollseyes Which is were the Brembos do reside.

But yeah the suspension tune is different on the Brembo package, including the electronic stuff too, ABS at the very least and I would imagine the T/C as well.

I wish Ford would offer the same Brembo option for the Auto as they do for the Manual. It isn't about the stopping power, it is just about having what I want, and am willing to pay for.

This is a bummer, I was planning on the 373s with Brembos with an Auto.

So what are the specs if you do order an Auto? Gear ratio? Stock front brakes only?

Big bummer as I was planning on using as a DD and like stated, manuals get old real quick in traffic and with all the manual tranny issues as of late, I just wanted to avoid!

I wonder how much it would cost to buy the Brembo brakes separate and have installed after the sale...

Rick from Amazon Tuning Solutions gave me a ride in his 2011 GT with 4.10's, stock tires and tune, and I about went out and bought one that day myself. Very very impressive. :rockon:
