OH yes, between the front and rear kit its SIGNIFICANTLY stronger. More than what I'll ever use in a daily driving situation I'll tell you.

I had been running the Cobra/Q45 setup since about 2006 and needed an upgrade for racing, so earlier this year I bought a used Wilwood/BlehmCo 12.6" 2-piece kit.

Name: e22d68db.jpg Views: 411 Size: 362.4 KB

It wasn't quite enough for what I needed, so I bought a new 12.9" 2-piece Wilwood kit from Fastbrakes and threw on some Carbotech AX-6 pads.

And this weekend I got the Fastbrakes rear 12.3" BBK installed with the AX-6 pads.

With the new Michelin PSS tires on, this car stops HARD! I can't wait to try out my Carbotech XP-8 pads this weekend at Summit Point More pics and info are in my ongoing build thread.

Whoa. Didn't know there was a rear bbk for the 4 gen +. I thought it was a huge bracket pain? Pic of bracket?

I'd say they are since the 6th gen calipers are a direct swap to 5.5th gen...
