Another plug for Brian's business: I just received my '03 Calipers that were powder coated Torch Red with Black letters. Turned out perfect! His packaging is the best I've ever seen from a company as well, no chances for parts to contact each other or sustain any kind of damage.

Just got my parts back and damn they're sweet! Do not hesitate to send Brian your parts! I sent 12 parts to be done in Mystichrome including valve covers, front/rear brakes, interior trim and under hood parts and they're all badass! Ill be sending him parts from my truck next! ;) Highly recommend!

That really makes the 03 cobra caliper look like it came off a Model T when its next to the new Gt and Gt500 calipers.

Man that Torch Red with snake skin looks AMAZING!!! You do some damn good work! :rockon:

They're for sale for a great price. Brand new never installed. Let me know if you're interested in them. I've got the rear calipers and mounting brackets done in the same pattern that are looking for a new home too.

That candy copper is sweet!

Can those little Cobra calipers be fitted to the rear of the S197 without re-engineering the mounting brackets and hoses?

Thanks and unfortunately not. Your best bet would be to get the new axle brackets off the new '13-14 GT500's. That bracket pushes the caliper out more allowing a larger rotor. The bracket is cheap, but you have to pull you axles to install it. Boo!

So purrrrrty!

:beer:

Very cool pics man. I'm assuming you powdercoat just about any car part? I'm looking to get some stuff done

I've got a 10'wide x 8'tall x 20' long oven. There's not much I can't coat. lol Let me know if I can help. I do ceramic coating and a fair amount of painting too. Also cut vinyl.


Two things

1. You do awesome work

2. Interesting to see all the differences between the years and between the brembos / baers / PBRs

Thank you, Sir! Yeah, I though I had a rare opportunity to see all the different calipers apart and wanted to share. The new Brembo 6P calipers are my favorites!

Brake Porn!

:rockon:
Nice pics, all those calipers look way better than mine do lol. Someday I'll get some brembos...

damn. Will be contacting you once I pick some 4 pistons up.

I've got plenty of sets for sale if you guys need them. Let me know if I can help.

I love that plastic wrap! Thanks for your business, Zach!

You've got the some amazing parts! Can't wait to see them all installed. Thanks for your business too, Greg!

Damn! That's some eye candy! So so clean!!

I put a powdered clear on everything. Can't beat it!

Being completely torn down and media blasted, coated and rebuilt with new seals, they're better than new. Let me know if I can help.

No kidding. lol My '93 has 16" rims while the new shelbys have 15 rotors! lol pretty amazing.

:beer: Your plate frame turned out really well! Glad I could help.

Man I really like the gunmetal . Nice work .

Holy crap bro, your work is outstanding!

:beer:

Absolutely amazing work!!! I'll have to come down there and get my parts done from you :beer:

Up here. I'm about 220 miles north of you, off hwy 101. lol, but thanks!

Damn, that's some awesome work. I need to get a Brembo kit for my Mach 1 and get them powdercoated red. Too bad I don't have the cash for them right now. And man, that gun metal looks awesome.

Send em over. We can carbon dip them and then fill in the recessed letters with whatever color you want. I ended up filling the letters on the mystichrome BAER calipers above in silver, but didn't get a pic.
