Questions on Bullitt brake upgrade
Ok, so I plan to order some Bullitt Calipers from buyfordracing.com. I have a few questions however. First what else will I need? It says it includes calipers pads and brackets. I know I will need rotors. Where is a good place to get some affordable slotted or drilled rotors? I know people say they are useless on a DD but I plan to do road racing and autox so they should help a little. Not to mention in 13"s they should look good behind the wheels. Also, I can get the stainless lines for 59 bucks as a package with the calipers. Are the ones they sell good or should I get different ones? Also, what is the story on the pads that are included? I am assuming they are an OEM type pad and not worth keeping. I thought getting some Hawk HPS pads would work much better than the included ones. Where is the cheapest place for the pads? They are like 89 on American Muscle.

Don't buy cheap slotted or drilled if you are AutoX or open track days. Most people that do those things just buy the Brembo Blanks (meaning no holes or slots). Almost all cheaper Drilled and slotted rotors will crack under Autox and Open track conditions.

i bought the bullit brake kit from them that came with the flat brembo rotors. install wasnt bad at all because the caliper came pre assembled. i also isntalled front SS lines, which was kind of a bitch. the braking now is 100x better, i have confidence now that i can stop the car all day.

im sure you would notice a bit of a difference but im really not positive. i've never gone that far with a brake upgrade.

stock master cylindar works fine with my bullet upgrade. i would reccomend upgrading the lines anyway, you have all that stuff off anyway and you have to bleed the brakes so why not spend a few more bucks and do it at once.

Ain't the bullitt brakes the same thing as the cobra but red?Yes most all drilled rotors will crack baer swears there's won't.But with the pads we have now drilled is useless in a street car slotted still works tho.
