Yeah, as cool as that would be, I think that that would be way too organized for us!

Man, you can't tease like that. We want to see the real pics!

More good brake information.

Yes, I'm a bit anal in doing research . . . :tongue:

It now looks like I may go SP Performance Diamond slotted rotors. They are list $197 front and $146 rear, but I'm trying to get a discount. :wish:

The choice and description of pads helps guide you to which ones to get. They also have the steel line with free speed bleeders if ordered this month. Stay tuned.

Brake System Upgrade Interest.

Note: I'm going to talk to Jonesi and see how we need to handle this.

Folks,

I'm 99 44/100% certain what I'm going to do regarding the brake system upgrade.

I spoke with a guy at RaceShopper.com about application, technology and pricing. After researching brake rotors, pads and pricing I believe these are the ones to work with. These are not blanks that a finished to our specs and then slotted and or cross drilled, but designed from the ground up to meet high performance applications and quality. There not the cheapest, but the best total cost over time in my opinion.

If you are interested let me know what you want to do. The pricing is list, but volume discounts would apply with a minimum of 20 sets (fronts and or rears) . . and for any application they can make for us . . . including Hummers. The price break at 20 units would get us the following pricing and a discount on any other items they sell regardless of quantity.

They are a top 5 Largest Distributor of Performance Braking Products and accessories in the USA!

Here's what I'm thinking based on my discussions. All pricing is based on CL/TL with slight differences on some products. Rotor pricing was the same regardless.

Sample Total Deal.

Complete package (with Nickel coating) $545.51, plus TT&L

As noted, these prices may vary slightly on items other than rotors, but I feel that for the product we are looking at, these are great prices. So let me know who's in on the rotors and I'll work with Jonesi on how we need to do this so we are not stepping on any toes.

I'm getting the fronts regardless of the deal, but need everyone to confirm by 4/24 so I can get my order in and at least take advantage of the free speed bleeders.

Ruf

Well damn Ruf, you have been doing your homework haven't you!! They sound good. I will have to look into these for the Vette.

You'd get the volume price as well . . . :)

Ruf

You'd get the volume price as well . . . :)

. . . . and if you really want one of the other types of rotors, cross drilled or diamond slotted the price is the same.

Ruf

Dang, I stopped the reply to add another comment, and bang . . . a double shot. :tongue:

Note: If we can get a group buy on this . . . there's no rush . . . as long as we can get them in time and installed by the big regional meet in October.

Ruf

yeah..you're right...I forgot you are men!! :whyme:

Snappers Computer doesn't like the camera software. Still trying though, stay tuned :tv:

Cool, get pics ? :D

ehem. and for the Integra ? :wish: :tongue:

Nice RH's Don !

Yokohama or Pirelli tires ? ;)

Yep, the Teg would qualify as well . . . . :nod:

Maybe even a bit cheaper on some parts . . . all depends on the GB outcome. :wish:

Ruf

Look like Yokos . . . ??

Ruf

:werd: I think we do well!

Not bashing the idea Sithgirl, I think it is a very good idea as a matter of fact, but like ricky said, we like driving with two wheels off the cliff :rofl:

and are you telling me that only 2 guys from Louisiana and 1 from Austin are interested in brakes from this group? :confused: :damn: :tongue:

Ruf

:woot: :cheers: I;ve been thinking of new Rotors if I get some new wheels :mantis: :D

My sentiments exactly :ponder: :)

Correction oh slut master :tomato: 2 guys from Louisianaland and 1 guy from Austinville .. :chuckle:

yea, but havent had a chance to get them up yet :D

Not sure what you are looking for, but here are some low cost ultra light weight wheels I'd get for my TLS if I could get out of my Konigs . . .

SPORT COMPACT-NEUTRON
or
SPORT COMPACT-PIRANHA
or
SPORT COMPACT-STORM

http://www.centerlinewheels.com/whee...hicle&data=30#

Of course yours might look tight in the black pearl finish :nod:

Ruf

So close!! I have been eyeing the Centerline RPM's in the Hi Polish finish (like my OEM GSR wheels have).

It's odd, a lot of "lightweight wheels" are so damn ugly in my opinion, but I guess people don't care about the combination of a good look and weight reduction.

Different strokes for different folks. :D

so damn i want my cooling mods i have money but dont know what to do with it AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

RUF87, Chopper, htown, liloj

WHORES

THIS FAWKING PEICE OF SHIT CAMCORDER

Sigh :werd: . . . but these are the best so far at a nice price . . .

Bucks no object I'd get SSR1 or 3s . . .but way too pricey for me . . . :(

Ruf

Hey Neighbor :wave: (Snaps) :ninja: :rofl:

Talked to Jonesi today . . . he says talks are back on for the group buy . . . I too wish they'd :hurry:

Ruf

:shake: :flash:

as long as its before JUNE ill be happy

Want them on the car by then :thumbsup:

COCK AND BALLS BIATCH.

I need money.

ORDER MY DAMN FOG LIGHTS :tongue:

GIVE ME BACK MY VODKA :yuck:

CUT YOU HAIR :yippie:

:werd: I love the SSR GT1 and 3's, but holy $$$

There is a SSM TLS in the Toronto Meet that had the GT1's :yum:

Actually, the RPM's would probably look great on a TLS too, and no where near the price of the SSR's.

Hopefully Target practice is over on it :tomato: :chuckle:

who's a little post whore... :whyme:

never forget it!!!!:spank:
