No, on the ABS.

The caliper paint is by G2:

I bought it from hubcapsplus via
http://wheelskin.com/Merchant2/merch...H&store_code=W

Search for "Limited Edition Mustang" caliper paint. There was a special discount coupon (MUSTANGFORUMS) that saved $22.00 off the $59.95 price; I don't know if it would still be good.

 

Why would you change rear brakes to gt? the v6 and gt are same?

 

THIS SHOULD BE MADE INTO AN STICKY

 

I am considering doing this as one of my mods for 2009.

 

any of you V6 guys want to sell me your old rotors & caliper brackets? shoot me a PM if interested. Thanks!

 

ya, you can use them, its not a must.

 

I'm glad to see my brake upgrade thread didn't die after the forum got hacked. whew...

 

The FRPP 18 inch bullitts require the use of GT brakes, don`t put these wheels on a stock V6 brakes.

bullitt wheels read the last tech note

 

For ease of sourcing parts for the conversion here is the link to the FRPP V6 conversion kit. http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts...KeyField=10100

 

hmm, knew about the steering stops, i wonder what the problem is with those wheels not going over v6 brakes.??

 

The V6 brake caliper will not clear the FRPP 18" wheel.

 

Just a quick update, the caliper brackets have gone up a lot in price, now $68 each.

 

Great info, thanks for posting! A simple and inexpensive upgrade. The dealer quoted me $68 each an the brackets, but I bought a pair from a board member at a great price.

 

Has anyone swapped out the rear brakes with GT rotors? What do you need? Are the brackets the same for front and rear?

 

The V6 and GT rear disc brakes are the same !

 

I just got back from the dealership. The brackets have been superseded by another stock number, which sells for $86.00! The older ones (listed in this thread) are of limited availability, and go for $68.00 each! Does anyone have an old set of GT brackets they want to sell? I was also told by the dealership that in order to replace the rear rotors, I'd have to replace the calipers as well.

 

Sorry. Didn't realize that. My bad.

 

Finally got my brackets, thanks to a member of this forum! I do the install on the 3rd. Will post pics after.

 

my dealer wanted $70 for the brackets. i got the kit from cjpony on sale for $125, brackets and rotors. i ran the rotors for a couple months but i needed new rear rotors so decided to replace all 4. i got 4 rotors and 4 sets of ceramic pads for around $205 from brake motove on ebay. ive bought 2 sets of these now. did the 06 last year, and this year i did mine. not bad for the money.

you can get the v6 set or the gt set, about the same price and free shipping. they got here pretty fast too. good service. this sale ended but it will get you to the store.
