Brakes!!

RE: Brakes!!
I would check Saleen website for brakes and calipers (I believe that they are Stop Tech). You will need to upgrade to 17" Cobra spare if you go with 13" brakes (as 15" spare you most likely have will not fit). You will need to add a 1" spacer to spare if you go with 4 piston calipers too. I am curious why you are going with 245's and 275's. I am currently running 275's and 295's. Tires fit perfectly and no rubbing. Good luck with your conversion

RE: Brakes!!
OK.
YOu have two choices for authentic Saleen front brakes for your year Saleen. Saleen used Alcon 13 inch rotors and the Brembo's during that time. No StopTechs. The Alcons are very difficult to find used with the correct slotted rotors and besides, they don't make the rotor anymore. You can cross reference it with a Baer rotor now. Both the Alcons and the Brembos are black calipers with SALEEN in yellow. THe last time I checked, Saleen did not carry the brembo's any longer. It has been a year now. Brembo does sell the exact kit but of course does not say Saleen on it. I have seen the Brembo's off a Saleen on ebay before. DiscbrakesRUs sells a replacement Cobra set up with Saleen painted on it. Not legit but loks decent and it's an improment over your stock brakes.
