[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 11788370, member: 6247"] Last night, we finally got the Full Tilt Boogie Racing 13" prototype S-197 rear brake conversion kit mocked up on my Boss 302S. I know, it's been a ridiculously long wait! :rollseyes This kit is a straight bolt-on affair and no opening of the differential or removing the axles is required. Here's what the kit consists of. Two 13" floating rotors with aluminum hard anodized hats, clear zinc plated, directionally vaned and directionally slotted rotor rings, two yellow zinc plated caliper relocation brackets and attaching hardware: [IMG]http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/5939/s197complete13inchrearkv.jpg[/IMG] Here is the caliper relocating bracket mounted to the caliper bracket with the low socket head screws and showing the clearancing required to the OEM caliper brackets: [IMG]http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/8557/bracketgrind.jpg[/IMG] Here's a close-up of the grinding/sanding required to the OEM caliper bracket making clearance for the caliper bracket attaching bolts: [IMG]http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/1723/bracketgrindmacro.jpg[/IMG] Here is the weight of the rotor assembly showing a total [B]REDUCTION[/B] of almost [B]3#[/B] of rotating mass and unsprung weight for a pair of rotors: [IMG]http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/3647/rotorwt.jpg[/IMG] Just for reference, here's the OEM rotor weight: [IMG]http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/9601/s197rearoemrotorweight.jpg[/IMG] Here is the assembly mounted on the car with the rotor: [IMG]http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/5598/oncar.jpg[/IMG] What the brakes look like under the wheel: [IMG]http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/231/completebj.jpg[/IMG] And another shot: [IMG]http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/6591/complete2.jpg[/IMG] I'm heading to Auto-Bahn Country Club in Joliet, IL with the Northwood's Shelby Club next weekend for a little R&D.
