Cobra brakes on GT, whats needed?
Well, I have connections. What exactly do I needto installCobrabrakes in the front?
I figure: 2 calipers, 2 rotors, and a pair of brake pads, seeing as the cobra and the GT use the same spindle. Is that really it? I can probably get all of that for around 250 dollars brand new.
Can I Re use the factory brake hose?
And what about the rear?since its IRS, would i need to do any modifications to fit cobra brakes on the rear of a GT?
Thankums

I don't know where your going to find a Cobra front brake kit for $250 since most places sell them for around $600 and that is for the calipers, rotors, pads, and two brake lines.
They used to be cheaper but they went up in price really bad last year.

I paid about $500 for mine. I bought the calipers and the banjo bolts from Buyfordracing for around $220. I bought declarotors form Brother's performance and new lines from AM.
You're going to need new banjo bolts.

Seeing as you can get all these new parts for $250.00 ( stolen ) You should[/align]replace the lines with Goodridge SS lines. With your connections,you should[/align]be able to get them for....... $5.00[/align]

You will need all of the parts that come in this kit (the link has a parts list) if your going to do both front and rear. I'm pretty sure you have to replace the brake lines. They provide new ones in the kit.
