BRENSPEED

I am interested in testing some new brakes and I would like to see if there is any interest in a group purchase on a level 1 or level 2 package. This is just a survey to see if any members "might" be interested. These brakes will have a firmer pedal and reduce stopping distance. They are also supposed to address the "squeeky brake" your mustang might have.

StopTech High Performance Level 1 G/P price around $359
Front and rear Hawk pads
front and rear stainless lines
3 bottles Motul 600 brake fluid

StopTech High Performance Level 2 G/P price around $699
Sames as level 1 but includes front and rear StopTech slotted rotors

The company is http://www.stoptech.com/

I would buy the stage two. I have been looking at power slot rotors anyway, this would end up a little cheaper with everything the StopTech kit includes. The rotars we would get would just be slotted correct. They show both as being available on their website, I wouldn't want the drilled and slotted rotors.

BRENSPEED

As for rotors I am pretty sure we can get them how we want them.

Vegasjay

Cool, I would want the rotors just slotted. Hopefully interest will be high in these and we can get the good deal.

BTW: Brent thanks for the great deal on the Zex kit, shipping was fast and the kit was flawless! I would but these brakes from you in a heartbeat.

I would be interested if there are drilled available, have had the slotted, and wasnt that impressed. thanks

Could you add a stage 3 for doing a complete big brake upgrade?

are they available for both the GT and V6 Mustang?

I plan on purchasing the StopTech Big Brake 4-Piston Kit. I'm going to post a writeup on the site.

If you test them, they will come

I need new pads and would want some new fluid but I'm not allowed to have SS brake lines yet but I would probably go for level 1

FordRacing

I'll be adding Pads, Rotors, and SS lines in the next year. Probably sooner then later.
Would love to see some testing done.

BRENSPEED

OK sounds good I will get a level 2 kit on the way Monday for testing. If they fit and function well I will create a GP. For those who can't get in on the GP I will keep them in stock for future purchase at the normal retail price or as low as we can sell them and maybe do another GP next year.

I will have to check on the V6, not sure off the top of my head if they will fit.

I'm interested in the level 2. But maybe after christmas.

Also interested in Level 2!

I am not real familiar with brake upgrades;

1. So what is better about the SS line, other than the material it is made of.

2. What is the performance difference between Regular rotors, slotted, drill, and slotted and drilled.

I too am interested in better/bigger slotted rotors and better pads.

Being in Germany, I constantly drive high speeds, sudden braking from 120+mph, etc.

I always have a feel that the stocks are about to give out. I also hate they way the nose "Dives" under hard braking. A little too much for my taste.

BRENSPEED

1. The SS lines wont flex as much as stock. This gives you a stiffer pedal feel and faster reaction when you hit the brakes.

2. Slotted or Drilled both use the edges of the cut to help wipe the pad face clean of debree. The edges also help bite the pads for a more aggressive stop. Add slots and drilled holes and you just get that much more of what I said above. Plain slotted or plain drilled would be fine for the street.

I checked on the V6 and was told the level 1 will fit fine. The level 2 front rotors will not fit the V6 but the V6 guys can still get a level 1 for improved pedal and performance.

Our sample of the level 2 has been requested. As soon as it arrives and we OK the package we will put together a GP.

The stock Rubber lines expand everytime you hit the brake pedal, The SS lines don't expand as much so there is not as much play in the pedal. (the less the line expands the more fluid get to your brakes faster, the higher and firmer the pedal feels).

The idea behind the slotted and drill rotors is it releases the gas build up between the pad and the rotor face by giving the gas somewhere to go. It makes the pads grip better because there is no gas between the two surfaces. I wouldn't recommend drilled rotors though for street driving. They tend to stress crack because of the repeated heat cycles. (it's to bad becasue they sure do look cool).

Interested in the stage 1; Couple of questions though. What kind of Hawk Pads are you using? HP or HP+? Also, can you make a kit without the rear pads. Rear pads don't make a difference and I personally wouldn't want them. I bet in our cars the fronts are responsible for 70% of the braking.

BRENSPEED

They are NOT the + pad. They are the HPS pad BUT as always I am flexible and can do the HP+ pads if somebody wanted them and wanted to pay the difference if there was one. As for just going with the front that is something else I am sure I can do but these come as "kits" which as anything in a package the price is reduced. I am pretty sure rear pads are around $65 or less so there is not a huge savings but still something I could work out for you.

I was told the level 2 package is in transit. I should have it here next week.
