this is great, thanks sean for the first one. I am just waiting for the stainless lines from goodridge and will be doing the same upgrade. Already have all the parts.

BMR guy · 01-25-2010, 12:05 PM

Thanks for the detailed install description. It's nice to know that the swap is that simple. I knew the drag racing guys were swapping out rear V6 brakes on their SS's to fit 16" drag tires but wondered how the swap would go in reverse!

A little help - I am about to order the SS Brembo Calipers from Chris, the Stillen Slotted & Drilled rotors, Hawk Cermaic pads and Goodridge Stainless Steel brake lines from Charlie at Stillen - I know these will fit the 20" RS rims but what to be sure my winter rims - Sport Edition ST4s will work OK with the SS Brembos - they're 20"x8.5", 34mm off-set, and 6.18" back-spacing. You guys see any issue with the winter rims? Thanks.

Nice Job Sean!!!

BlackIce1066 · 01-28-2010, 12:49 PM

Looks great. My brother is about to do this and I will be putting them on.

Is there anyone making stainless braided brake lines for these?

camarowa · 01-28-2010, 12:55 PM

goodridge makes the stainless lines, i ordered them from tirerack and have been waiting for about 3 weeks. Estimated shipping date now 2/2/10. Have all the other parts ready to go

Getting a hold of Chris at Fessler is like pulling teeth, been trying since you posted this reply. Can you tell me what comes with the set. Is it just the calipers, pads, rotars, and brake line??? Any info would be great, as I plan on upgrading the rotars, pads, and brake lines anyway, I was just wondering if it would be cheaper just to buy the items direct brand new as I can get all four calipers for $360 plus s/h

camarowa · 02-03-2010, 11:02 AM

i just installed mine yesterday, a local performance shop did it. Difference is night and day. best upgrade so far. will post pics.

tjd24 · 02-03-2010, 12:07 PM

So in planning this upgrade I've considered ordering the OE Brembo Calipers new - here's the list of parts I think I need and would appreciate some help confirming I'm not missing anything:

92233189 Driver side front disc brake caliper, without pads, bracket, pins and clips.
92233188 Passenger side front disc brake caliper, without pads, bracket, pins and clips.
92233177 Driver side rear disc brake caliper, without pads and*bracket.
92233176 Passenger side rear disc brake caliper, without pads and bracket.
89047711 Front disc brake pad pin kit; includes 2 pins and one retainer.* 2 kits per vehicle - Charlie at Stillen indicated the pads don't come with the pins or retainer.
89047728 Rear disc brake pad pin kit; includes 2 pins and one retainer.* 2 kits per vehicle. - Charlie at Stillen indicated the pads don't come with the pins or retainer.
Plus
Stillen Slotted/drilled Rotors - front & rear - direct from Stillen
Goodridge G-Stop Braklines - ordered via Stillen
Hawk Performance Ceramic Pads - Front & rear - ordered via Stillen

Anything I'm missing? I'm having ECS here in NJ do the install so I don't want to have them tell me I'm missing any parts required. Thanks...
