[Bill Reid]

... continuing to build our Ford product line we have added the Brembo Cobra R front brake hit to our line up. Matching rear rotors also available.

Thanks to Warp03Cobra for allowing us to install a set on his ride Pricing and options can be viewed on our website - http://www.xmsengineering.com/braking

thats nice except they're $995 from G.E.F. all day long.

Looks sharp.

Off topic: did you guys ship my K&N CAI? I ordered on fri & was told I would get a email with a tracking #, never got it. I just now tried calling but the line was busy.

Wow I just creamed myself! That is awesome!


One comment on the website though, I think the GM parts need to be seperate from the Ford stuff ;-). It's kind of hard digging through the 03 Cobra parts with the abundance of Corvette items.

 

[Bill Reid]

... can't compete with that ShelbyGuy... so I guess I won't be selling any kits. :shrug: BTW, who is G.E.F.?

 

[Bill Reid]

Juiced, agreed... we are growing faster than our website... I need to have it redesigned and plan to do so after our catalog is released in the next couple of months

edit: free advice. dont try and compete with either gene evans ford or ford parts network.

i think you'll sell plenty simply becuase you can install as well, and you guys are figuring prominently in the 03cobra scene.

edit again: google for 'brembo race technologies' and see if they have a web site yet. thats the place brembo recommends if you want your calipers painted a different color, but you want the 'brembo' logo put back on.

FYI, for anybody purchasing this kit through Ford make sure the rotors are Brembo and not Kelsey-Hays rotors. Ford does not offer Goodridge brake lines nor do they offer a Brembo brake pad... as I do... because I get the kits through Brembo... not Ford

I know we shipped a couple out in the last 2 business days. Give us a call... you should have received a tracking number via email. We can give you a tracking number over the phone

rockin!

do you guys tack on a 'handling fee' or anything like that? how about sales tax to people outside your state?

edit: this thread http://www.corner-carvers.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6049 might be of benefit to people wishing to step up to a rotor and hat assembly with this brake package

This setup is very cool and looks great on any car. :coolman: Now all I need to do is see if I can get a set on my car.;-);-)

 

[Bill Reid]

We do not tack on any handling fee's... and we do not make money on shipping either. Our prices reflect a fair mark-up on the merchandise only... we gotta eat too Its great when we have the opportunity to gain a little extra on installation labor... helps pay for the $2500 scan tool needed to properly bleed the brakes throught he ABS unit

I have a friend who has the same setup on his Saleen and the brakes make loud screeching noise after you get on them pretty hard. Just wondering if his brake pads are the culprit. I like these brakes as long as they are very quiet.

NB: this brake setup does not clear bullitt wheels for those of us who run them as snow tires

 

[Bill Reid]

... and the SSR GT3 wheels require a 3mm spacer

 

[hj16]

How about 18" Bullitts, or 18" 03 Replicas??? And the rotors are 13" correct? 4 piston Calipers?

 

[Bill Reid]

Not sure about the wheels you mention... I do know this kit WILL fit with the stock Cobra wheel. Yes, 13" rotors and 4 piston calipers

 

[ShelbyGuy]

im talking factory bullitt wheels

 

[Vindication]

This is a cute set up for us Cobra owners but for a person like me I need something more extreme in the front now that I have this brake kit there now. Can you use these as rear brakes because I would really like a 6 piston Brembo kit at the front.....it would really look nice with my current wheel. Any help? And don't tell me a 6 piston brake kit cost 3-4 grand because I already know that.

Would look better IMO if the rotors were silver and not gold.
