My 410 gears, my brembo big brake kit and lower air deflector for the front spoiler! INstallation next week. Can hardly wait!

 

If there was a tree in the picture it would look like Christmas!

 

Nice!!! You're really gonna dig those brakes!!

 

Excellent Darren. Might be worth it to hold off a bit and have the calipers painted red or yellow.

 

Quit taking pictures and get crackin'!



Great haul there...have fun and keep us posted!

 

Are those the 6 piston Brembos with 15" rotors? Niiiice!

 

yes they are the 6 piston 15" monsters. Tom, I actually like the black calipers personally. Everybody seems to have the red ones so i think i'll stay with the black

 

So by November, Darren should have a Whipple and then he can put the snakes on the fenders...so he can tel everyone he has a GT500

 

nope, no snakes. She's a custom Mustang GT.

To be honest, i am using the '13 gt500 along with the supersnake as my inspiration. Badging stays GT, as i don't want to be incorrectly badged and then badgered
I'm after a certain look and then perhaps...

next year...
maybe...

an aluminator and a whipple. it's a potential idea, but not a probability.

At the end of the day, i still smile and sneak a peak at her in the driveway so i'm doing something right. No regrets.

 

I know you would never. I'm with you though. A lot of fun to do the building piece by piece versus buying it "done."

 

The way I figure it, it's like Darren has been getting a new car every 3 months.

 

How much for the brembos darren? 4k?

 

no Alex, more like 1800. the rotors are vented but not 2pc or drilled and slotted. those would have added up to alot more.

 

oh stop and go Ha

 

Very nice Darren!!!
You are building one heck of a great car sir! Keep us posted.

 

oh wow, thats great. seems like you got a good price. all the big brake kits i see online from various manufacturers are all around 3-4k

 

Yeah,...tell me about it.
Baer and Wilwood want crazy bucks. Brembo isn't cheap either though.

 

Newbie here: why does the box say "Ford" and the calipers (?) say "Brembo"?

 

He bought them from Ford Racing, hence the boxes.

 

These are the OEM equipment on the 13-14 GT500s. The 07-12 GT500 had 4-piston front Brembos standard, and the same brakes were optional on the 11-14 GTs and standard on Boss 302s. The 2015 GTs also have 4-piston front brakes standard, but they're not made by Brembo anymore. The 2015 GTs have the 6-piston GT500 brakes as an option.
