Here are some shots of my Gen V with the Carbon Brake Kit on it.
I have put 1500 miles on the brakes with no issues. The first couple of hundred were put on by Jon B at Sebring raceway when the car was used as the pace car for NARRA last month. The brakes are 15" front and rear with your factory Brembo calipers . I am working on a 6 piston front caliper version too. I have only tried it with the Sidewinder II wheels so far.
I am also working on a 15.5" 6 piston front but you will have to upgrade your wheels to a 19" front.
Thanks

So its a factory size front and rear rotor? Weight savings vs stock? Doesn't change the wheel offsets needed at all?

The factory is 14" front and rear so they are 1" bigger in diameter
They save 5 lbs per wheel over my stock track package so it 20 lbs of un-sprung weight you lose. its 24 lbs lighter than the T/A brakes
No change in the offset "it was not easy to do that by the way"
These brakes are massive the pad contact area is a lot more than stock or the steel 15" big brake

Price on a set of 4 rotors and pads to retrofit?

Its all custom made and the parts are expensive $12,500.00
I have not tried to make it for the Gen IV car yet but it should work with a few changes
Also I have to machine the front calipers and rear park brakes for clearance
Thanks
