I was looking at the fastbrakes.com kit with the 4pot wilwoods and was wondering if any one has used them with 15" Kosei K-1's. I need new brakes bad and I will never put a stock brake part back on my car. I am sick of warped rotors. If any other good ideas arise let me know. I was thinking of just getting EX knuckles, accord wagon calipers, and prelude rotors re-drilled, but the 4pot setup lightens 8lbs off, and has to brake alot better one would assume. Correct me if I am wrong guys. if you have the frankenbrake setup I just mentioned and love it let me know. It is a lot easier on my bank account.

 

check my install:

but, don't think you won't warp a rotor... overtorquing your lugnuts will warp any rotor.

 

Thanks for your response, pics and info is very helpful, but the question remains will they fit with 15" Kosei K-1's? My rotors weren't warped from overtightening my lugs. It was from too many little jogs to 120+, and back down to zero. I know this is a hard punishment on brakes, but my car gets reamed, everytime it is driven. I need something to take lots of abuse. I won't lie, I am abusive.

 

They fit under most 15" wheels. K1's have pretty thin spokes, I wouldn't worry too much about clearance.

If you don't want your rotors to warp have them cryogenically tempered.

 

they should. The only problem is offset. I had a problem with my BBS rims... i had to put spaces (i believe 15mm spacers)

 

Ya most importantly DON'T was you car While the brakes are warm !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Great install write-up! Thanks for making it.
