AP Racing brake systems in development

[JRitt]

Coyote,
Yes, the C300 will be available for the rear.

The AP S100 will be available for the rear also, as will the Ferodo DS1.11 and DS2500.

[JRitt]

he said from the outset that the endurance and competition kits will NOT fit OEM wheels. the ones that will fit the OEM wheels are the Formula kits, being designed by AP Racing themselves.

This is correct. We never believed the Sprint and Endurance competition systems would fit stock wheels. The discs are considerably thicker, which pushes the wheels out. They give you much more thermal mass, without having to go up to a large diameter wheel.

[JRitt]

[Thank you for the detailed reply.

No worries. Thanks for the candid input!

Unfortunately, no. I'm just some guy who happens to have the same first two letters in his first and last name. Sorry to get your hopes up. haha I don't know RJ personally, but I've had the opportunity to speak with him briefly once. He's a cool guy.

lol. Nice!

will you be offering choice of semi-or non-floating discs for the Endurance system?

I plan to run it on a daily basis and need no rattle to hear

Hi Guys,
We are now accepting preorders for both of our Competition Brake Systems. As to not overly clutter this thread, I put the details on our blog page. I put together some special bundles of associated parts (extra pads, rear lines, rear pads, fluid) at hefty discounts.

As an example of how it works...when you buy our front Sprint System, it comes standard with the AP Racing C300 pads that are perfect for track use. If you wanted a set of front and rear Ferodo DS2500's for AutoX, you can buy those at 50% off. If you also wanted some matching rear Spiegler stainless steel brake lines and some AP Racing brake fluid, you can buy those at 50% off as well. In this example, all of those parts would normally cost $445.64. If you preorder, you get them all for $222.82 (a savings of $222.82).

Once we ship the first kit, prices will all go back to standard.

Thanks, and let me know if there are any questions.

Endurance system discs are all floating.

Very interested in a Sprint system, sent you an email.

1. The changes to the Endurance system bracket are complete, and they are now in production. I'm going to post some pics and details on the changes soon. The outcome is very slick, and I think our customers will really like what we did on these.
2. Official prices for our Competition Brake Systems are as follows:
   • Sprint System- $2,099.00
   • Endurance System- $2,599.00
   • Both systems will include everything you need for the front of the car, including a set of AP Racing C300 endurance racing pads (not some sh*tty $14 street pads that belong in a dumpster...sorry, sensitive topic for me!)
3. I was told that we should be able to ship the Sprint systems within the next 2 weeks...they're almost done!
4. We are going to open up pre-orders for both systems in the next few days. Anyone pre-ordering either of our systems will have a special bundle of supporting products available at drastically reduced prices. I'll post more details on the pre-order and launch bundles very soon. I just need to iron out a few more details.

I put together our page for the Sprint System. I need to go through it again, but just about everything should be there. I put the S2000 installation instructions up since the FT86 ones aren't yet finished. They should give a good idea of what is involved in the install. Wheel fitment templates are also at the top of the page.

I think that's it for now. Thanks gents. Let me know if you have any questions about anything.

FYI...an Evo we were supporting just got 2nd in class and 5th overall at Pikes Peak the other week. He is running the Endurance package on his car (CP8350 calipers and CP3908 discs...and CL Brakes pads). Here's a pic from the event...thought it was cool pic of these brakes in action and wanted to share. You can see more details on the car and results here.

Hey, can you please PM post on Sprint system shipped to Australia?

[JRitt]

Thanks for the orders folks. I'm very excited to finally see these on cars, and on track where they belong! The hats and brackets for the Sprint System are looking like they may be here late this week. If you're on the fence, I'd recommend taking advantage of our pre-order offers. Once the kits start shipping, prices all go back to normal. Thanks again.

Looking forward to this. Right in time before going to the roval in fontana. Thanks Jeff.

Do you guys have any more info on what wheels will fit? I'm considering the Enkei RPF1 17x8 or Kosei K4R 17x8

Enkei 17X8 +45 fits, i tested their templates on mine. You should be fine with the kosei as well, but just to be sure you can download, print, and cut their template and measure it on the wheel.

Here is the template on my 17x8 +45 rpf1

The problem with that is that it requires buying the wheels before I find out whether or not they fit.

But thanks for the RPF1 info - I'm leaning towards those wheels anyway.
