More info from the owner "Semi metallic pad (normal brake pad ): low probability of abnormal noise, low powder, high temperature resistance effect 350-400 degrees Celsius Running leather (performance brake pad): low powder, high brake friction, and high temperature resistance, with a temperature resistance of 500-700 degrees Celsius Ceramic specific leather: suitable for ceramic brake discs, not for steel discs (There are two main types of TT sport pad, both of which have better performance.) 1. Black pad , less dust, no abnormal noise, high temperature resistance with a friction coefficient of 0.4 or above, and working temperature of 0-500 ° C. 2. Red pad: imported high-quality aramid, imported modified resin high specific surface material, alloy material."
Thanks for that love, I like that you notice. I'm super happy for the people that do follow and like my content! I just like to help bring my part of the world to you all and so appreciative that I have people like you here!
Love the content! I have a quick question with clearance concerns, do you need to run extended wheel studs due to the wider caliper? Or should I be okay with the OEM wheel stud length? I just bought some VMS wheels 15x8 20 offset lmao
YES!!! Can't wait for these to be released. Recently bought some EX spindles to run the mini cooper upgrade but will probably hold off and go with this kit for my DX hatch. Great and informative video as always.
~$625 kit to compete with the Wilwood DX kit is crazy! Excited to see how they stack up. Also excited to see some more 15x7 wheel fitment on these calipers. I really hope that the other smaller "budget" JSR kit will be designed as a competitor to the Wilwood DPHA 10.5" kit where it bolts up direct to an OEM rotor, except just made for the 9.5" rotor / DX spindle. I think this would fill a spot missing in the market. Another question is: what pad plates will these JSR calipers be using? Will we be able to use pads from other companies like Hawk?
Is there a standard direction that slotted rotors are supposed to be orientated? I always thought they went the other way. The set i put on my cobalt ss were labled individually and the slots point the other way (counter clockwise) which makes sense. To clear any gasses and debris and channel it outward. My buddy has a srt8 charger and his are ponted forward on one side and then backwards on the other side. To me those just look backward.
I think it just depends on the manufacturer. I've seen them both ways. My Wilwood were the same way but I've had some rotors that weren't part of any brake kit set and those faced the other direction.
Well I got my hands on some thankfully. They’ll be getting here on the 19th. I only made one mistake. I didn’t realize u had a discount code 😢😢😢 coulda saved like $60 bucks
@@GarageBuiltHondas nvm. I was hyped to finally get some. But I just got an email that said the order was canceled. They said they didn’t have any in stock apparently 😞. Even though it said there was 2 in stock. I’ll just keep checking.
Hi Mate! Thank you for this video Just want to ask, you had yo remove the. Spindle splash guards right? And just to confirm, these were installed on. 15CL spindles right?
Mine already had the dust shields removed. I'm unsure if they'll fit with them. These are on the small spline dx spindles. They do not squeak when cold.
Great video man, that setup looks nice! If you have any interest in selling that Buddy Club exhaust I'd possibly be interested, I can't find them anymore. Keep up the great work!
Love a good brake upgrade. I just finished up a Mini Cooper 11" brake + ITR/CRV caliper setup on my EG this weekend. Doesn't look as nice as the kit you installed here, and required Integra knuckes but it fits under my 15x6.5 wheels!
Thanks brother! Do we know what track pad style we will need on these calipers? I might have to downgrade my integra hubs for this kit. Interested in what DTC70 these take.
I've always appreciated your honest reviews. When things don't fit, you say so, when they do, your still try to point out any potential for improvement. That does look like a pretty damn cool kit.
Throwing in my two cents Mr Jon. I had the 12" wilwood set up on my eg. I didn't take into account what wheels would fit. The only wheels I could get over the brakes were 17's !! All my 15's ans 16's absolutely would not fit, so I went with the WILWOOD 10.5" DPHA kit with no brake booster. I am very pleased. The brakes are amazing. Just keep wheel size in mind folks with these big brake kits. Love your channel Jon 😊
The wilwood kit is hell on earth to work with. The line is the devil. I ziptied mine too and it slip and tore the new axle. But stock line fit the wilwood but they tell u it won't to sell their line. And the nut didn't thread in the line. The wilwood pad don't use all the rotor surface either. I wish I can trade my wilwood for a jackspania. Bought wilwood 5yr ago it was what's available in 2019
