Ebay 13 wilwood big brake kit

[Poodles]

There is a thread about them on sf I guess they fit pretty good but the pad stuck out of the top of the rotor a few mm's .

Meaning junk...

Keep in mind if you buy the ARZ kit the actual rotor (not the rotor hat) is an off the shelf wilwood piece and can be replaced without having to be machined like this kit.

IIRC they were pretty cheap too.

They might be but I can not speak of them since I have not used them. Just like what the OP asked he was looking for people that has used them and there feelings.
Thats also means you too because I know you haven't. Call them junk that is fine, but you haven't used/seen them. Just what I have read on SF and what doward has said about them. Im not saying there good or bad just what I have seen over on sf.

How about a link to that thread?

How about you use the same search button that I have, and use it. Since I would have to search for it again

I clicked on the search button, and got nothing. It's not letting me do a search.

Maybe not junk, just the difference between perfect, and good. Hence the $400.00 price difference. This could be a starting point, and then get upgraded rotors later.

azp? arizona performance? just guessing, i always thought it was arz, too

Well, hadn't purchased one but have some input. The diff in this e-bay kit vs the AZP kit is the ebay kit uses pads that are not readily available, or not as available as the pads that the AZP kit uses.

Nice Parts are not cheap. Cheap parts are not nice.

I saw AZP, and went with it, Didn't think it was worth getting all fired up about, you know.

Not using the entire pad = waste

Name ONE vehicle that rolls out of the factory with brakes like that.

Why don't you go to a party and get addressed by Jay, Ray.

Has any one on here bought one of these kits and is using it? It looks as they have sold a lot of them but i wanna hear about it from a member on here not the seller.

My search still works I think it was the second hit.

Thanks for the link. After reading, my opinion still stands: good setup for the money.

I didn't start it, just continued it.

Waste it might be, but there's still more brake force available than stock. Most likely, the adapters are slightly long, probably because the fabricator chose not to do the grinding of the knuckle that's required with the ARZ kit.

Save your money and buy the good kit, it will cost you less in the long run...anyone with experience will back me on this. Arizona's Kit is well worth the extra cash...

 

[becauseican]

Well he said he will tell me once i buy the kit. But i dont wanna the kit i wanna make my own.

:3d_frown: So you want to copy his kit ?, you are ridiculous !!!, use your brain and do your own R&D. As a fabricator / innovator myself, I have no respect for people that copy other peoples parts and ideas. And everyone wonders why not many companies are developing new part for these cars?, its just a waste of time when someone copies it and under cuts the price.....end rant.

Did you buy the kit from ARZ?
