Hey folks, After putting 20" SVE rims from LMR on my 11' GT the brake rotors just looked to small. So I started looking at brake kits online and then I decided to go a different route. So after looking at projects that others have done I figured I'd go ahead and start mine. My 2011 mustang GT Premium that I purchased used a year ago did not come with the Brembo brake package.
-Total cost $1,473.85 after taxes and shipping as of 5/21/2018
REAR:
Blowfish Racing 2005-2014 Mustang GT500 Rear Brake Caliper Mounting Plate Kit:
POWER STOP AR85152XPR -2014 Mustang GT500 14" Drilled and Slotted Rear Rotors x2
FRONT:
MOTORCRAFT BRCF312 - 2015 Mustang GT S550 6 piston Brembo Caliper
MOTORCRAFT BRCF313 - 2015 Mustang GT S550 6 piston Brembo Caliper
RUS-693380 stainless steel braided Brake Lines - Kit includes all 4 brake lines
CENTRIC 12761106L (127.61106L) 2014 GT500 15" Drilled and Slotted Front Rotor
CENTRIC 12761106R (127.61106R) 2014 GT500 15" Drilled and slotted Front Rotor
MOF-BKCF20 CLIP - Optional I ordered x2 of these kits.
Front 2013-2014 GT500 Dust shields - Optional I did not order at this time.
PWR-Z26-1792 S550 Brake pads of your choosing.
-For more information articles can be found by looking up S197 to S550 Brake conversion.
I just recently ordered the parts so I have not actually began the swap. To put the mounting plates on, "the axles will have to be removed from the rear end housing." For those that do not want to remove the axles from the rear end there are adapter plates on ebay that bolt to the factory flanges. I did not want to go that route.
-The factory Brake Calipers can be reused on the rear with the new 2013-2014 GT500 14" rear rotors.
For the front all you need by what I have read are the 15" rotors from 2013-2014 GT500 and brake calipers from 2015+ 6 piston Brembo equipped Mustangs. Also new brake lines from 2013-2014 GT500 or universal kits. The one that I have posted on there says it does not work for Brembo Brakes but it has been confirmed that it does by what I have read. I'm going to give it a try. Ill try and post pictures as I go. Here is a before picture.
