Tokico Calipers, Sunstar Rotors and Nissin M/cylinder

[Guest]

Actually Brembo is my choice. I wonder if they are available.

Yes, the Brembo conversion is offered by Mikuni Racing - Japan.

Yoyodyne offers the PFM conversion
(lines, calipers, rotors)

AP has a packaged conversion
(lines, calipers, rotors, fluid)

Brake-Tech sells Nissin calipers with Superlight rotors for less money than
either the PFM or AP setup.

Hey what is with the Nissin master cylinders for both the clutch and Front brake, so why didn't they use Nissin calipers?

Does Tokico not make master cylinders and only calipers?

Anybody notice this one or offer any thoughts?

Just installed my PFM brake conversion kit (same thing as AP, since PFM make AP brakes).

Great stopping power, looks way cool, light as a feather, expensive as hell!

Got mine from 2-Brothers (nice guys).

Here is a *BIG* picture of the new brakes:

Jeff how were the lines to fit? Too long or just right?

The PFM kit is supplied with TLR lines, at least mine was. Jeff how was yours marked?

Jeff what pads are you using the PFM or the Ferodo CP911?

...c'mon Jeff, I'm taking notes here!

The brake line in the picture looks "tight as a well stretched rubber band" is it OK?
