Did Someone Say Brembos?

Simple and sweet…I’ve been a busy bee thus far in 2018. What next you ask? Well it’s Brembo time! That’s right, the oh so controversial STI Brembo kit for our cars that lead some to say you’ll die driving if you do the swap. First off, much appreciation to @kuczynskika for the help in progressing my BRZ3N build and information regarding this swap! As I’m sure many know, there are a ton of Big Brake Kits out there on the market for our cars. StopTech, Wilwood, AP Racing, etc. As you can imagine however, based on the BRZ3N OEM+ performance build, the STI Brembo Kit was a given. This swap for the unfamiliar entails flipping the bleeder valves on the front calipers for the proper orientation or swapping the front calipers from L to R. These front calipers have had the bleeder valves flipped. I will be pairing these to go with my JDM tS 18-inch Enkei wheels. They’ll be accompanied by DBA T3 4000 Rotors, Hawk HPS pads, and to be added at a later date; Radium Master Cylinder Brace and stainless-steel brake lines.

I’m excited to get this swap done but admittedly, it’ll have to wait for a while. I am piecing together a few other things at the moment and won’t be able to use these until I get tires for the tS Enkei wheels and get those ready to be mounted on the BRZ. In the interim, I have plenty of life left on my factory tires and so I’ll be running those down while I work on acquiring the funds for the Radium Master Cylinder Brace and stainless-steel brake lines along with other projects for the BRZ3N build.

With that said, one of those projects I’ll be discussing soon! Thanks again for your time and I hope you enjoi the BRZ3N build journey as much as I am. Stay tuned as there’s more to come soon. Believe that!
