We are now a Brembo Dealer!!

When I am instructing guys at the track, I always tell them, "If you want to go fast.......you have to stop fast"!

We have some great 'go fast' tuning solution solutions, and now to go along with that philosophy we have brought on Brembo brakes as a braking solution for our clients.

I added their upgrade for the SL55 to my car and was amazed at the difference. I thought our stock brakes were good (although they fade at the track), but the new Brembo set up is amazing! I know everyone is into more HP and faster acceleration, but in order to do justice to that power, you should take the brakes to the next level.

Let me know if you have any questions.

The system that I put on my SL55 from Brembo is part of their Gran Turismo line. They only recommended changing the front system, which is what I did...and the results were brilliant.

It consists of 8 piston monobock calipers, and 2 piece 380mm rotors, SS lines, fully floating, etc. They are using alot of the hardware from the SLR application. Since they designed the OEM system, they desgned this one to work with our stock rears, which they didn't feel needed an upgrade, as well as to work with the brake by wire system that we have. I didn't weigh everything but there is definitely a difference in the unsprung weight, in the way the car turns into corners now, so I am sure it is a lighter set up. Heaven knows, our cars need to be on a diet!

PM me for pricing...and if their is enough interest a group buy.
