Any one have any caliper specs on the following calipers for S2000:
~Brembo
~Spoon
~Endless

clearences, width, # of pistons, can OEM pads be used, minimum wheel size... etc. Any and all info would greatly be apreciated.

Thx in advance

 

i think you should be able to find that info rather easily by asking your sales person.......

and while you're looking at breaks.. don't forget about the stoptechs.....

 

I have Endless and I had Spoons.

Spoon is a 4 piston caliper
Endless is a 6 piston caliper

If your looking to upgrade your brakes I would suggest a simple and not so expensive rotor/brake pad swap out. This is truely the way to go vs. spending thousands of dollars for bling and a little better stopping power. But if your in the market to upgrade the very good OEM calipers I would suggest Spoon or Brembo only because they are much easier to find wheels that will clear without spacers. If you move to the bigger calipers such as Endless, Winmax, Project Mu, Alcon, well you will have a lot of problems finding any wheels that will work without spacers. You almost have to run a low +30 offset front to clear with no spacer. Most of us use a low +40 offset front and run a single spacer. Anyway also be prepared to spend some bucks..

Spoon Calipers $1600
Endless 6 pot brake kit $3700
Project Mu 4 piston 4 pad kit $4000
Winmax $4900 for just the calipers
Alcon $3700+

 

I track my car as well as show it. I am looking for upgraded braking for spirited driving and track use along with a bling aesthetic appeal for show use.

Though I don't want to spend a fortune on brakes I am willing to pay if I know I am getting my money's worth on a quality product.

As far as wheel offset and caliper spacing, for street and show use, up front I run BBS LM's 18x8 +50 (not sure on disk type). For tracking I use the stock '04 S2000 wheels 17x7 (OEM offset).
On the LM's I am running a 235/40 with Espiler springs and do occasionally rub during uneven pavement. Thus my concern if a spacer needs to be run... I might have to camber the front severely or raise the car some...

I will try contacting each manufacture in time, but was hoping to find some measurements and reactions from people that have the calipers on the car. The main measurement I am looking for is from the rotor to the edge (behind the wheel face) of the caliper, so that I can have a rough idea if I will need a spacer and how big if needed.

Thx again

What about Rotora Calipers? Will the stock wheel offset fit over the Rotora Calipers?

 

well i believe willwood has a big break kit that clears the stock 16inch wheels...

 

I've been doing some research and found some specs.
What I need are if anyone has the distance measured between the rotor face and the edge of the caliper... any help is appreciated thx again!

 

Do the Spoon calipers clear the stock wheels on the S2000, or are spacers needed???

 

They do not clear the 00-03 OEM wheels unless a spacer is used. I dont know about the new 04-05 specs. I would assume you need a spacer as well.

 

will not clear the 04+ wheel also, i have the spoon caliper, and it required a +42 offset in the front to clear the caliper without spacer!

 

I hoped they would. I had the Spoon calipers 3 years ago and back then they seemed big but now after having the Endless and Project Mu they are like mini brakes which are a little larger than OEM size.

 

yeah the Endless are the bigest caliper avaliable for the S2000... they're insane.. I would need a 15mm spacer (0.5") just to clear them on the LMs...

Rotora is slightly smaller, then StopTech, then Project Mu, then Brembo, then Spoon and finally the smallest BBK is the Wilwood...

my wheels are making hard for me to have a BBK on my car

 

does anyone have any specs on the spoon sports monoblock s2000 caliper?

preferably I am looking for (measurement in or mm) the distance from the rotor face to the egde of the caliper...

i.e. as shown in the cheap diagram I made:

Does anyone have these on their S2K's yet and any comments on them? Thanks in advance.
