Hey svtp!

I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with these brakes? I'm getting a quote on a big brake setup for my 03 cobra.

Thanks!

Lots of feedback from the raptor forum. Might search there. Here are a couple.

Another option to consider: Mustang 94-04 - Kits
I initially had Wilwood brakes. The calipers were black and the finish looked horrible. Had a second set shipped to me and they were just as bad.

So I won't be going with Wilwood brakes to say the least.

Dam that sucks to hear, first time I've seen that F/R kit. Guess I will keep stalking your brake threads.

Yeah, I'll likely order the Baer 6 piston extreme kit along with matching rear rotors.

I run R1 concepts on my GT500, but not the big brake kit. I used them at 4 track days (Charlotte, CMP, and Road Atlanta) now and have no regrets. combined with motul brake fluid, have had no brake fade or scary moments. No squealing, but do have more brake dust.

Wow. First time i have heard something like that. I loved my Willwoods on my 01 and old 04. One set was red and the other was black. No issues. Sorry that you had a shit experience
