The Original R & D vehicle owner was not interested in doing a Big Brake Kit. He wanted to get upgraded Rotors and Pads. These are still in development.

Do you still need a test Evo? How long would you need it?

My X MR is coming in 5-10 days (according to Mitsu) and I'd love to get a Big Brake kit from your company at those tester discounts you have, lol.

Your coming down to SouthCoast I think, this would be a great oppurtunity. Rotora has some great stuff! Bump for them!

I'm curious to find out what the testing procedure involves. Did you guys take the car to the track? Because you would have to turn pretty aggresively for the AYC to start braking the rear tires. I'm assuming you guys are using a customer's car to develop your kit.

Sorry for being skeptical, but BBK upgrade is a lot of money (I'm guessing around $5,000~$6,000 for front and rear setup). Can you let us know what kind of test procedures were involved? Thanks.

I agree with you, but remember they are a company trying to sell it's product.
Until independent sources say it really doesn't interfere with SAYC on the circuits I remain skeptical as well.

Indepedent source would be great. I was a little surprise to see that they flat out said it doesn't interfere with SAWC. I would buy a kit that either AMS, Buschur, or other reputable companies put on their TimeAttack cars.

We would love for you to come by and do the R&D for the MR. We would need the car for about a day but I am certain we can develop a kit very soon for you.

Please give me a call (909) 590.1712 ext 104

We will work on getting you something really sweet.

Thanks,

Todd

You should take some pictures and post them on here for people to see.

Front 6-Piston 355x32mm
Rear 4-Piston 355x32mm

Did you have a chance to take your car to the dealer? I hope everything was alright.

Car Look Great!

It was the Transfer Case? That is pretty unusual especially with only 2,000 miles on it.

Let me know how everything works out
