And just got word that the rears were unable to be made. The packaging does not work. A GT350 Rear Conversion will run about $1400-1600 if anyone is interested. It gives you 4 piston rear calipers and a sizable rotor surface. We also have some new pads on the way for the Front and Rear in different compounds.

Im interested in new pads asap :eek: Are pads to be for the 350GT conversion or for us regular GT PP owners? (Seems to be a need)

Sorry for the entry level questions...

  • Are the conversion rear brakes a weight savings vs. GT PP?
  • Is it accurate to say that GT PP has the exact same front brakes as the GT350 as far as pad size ?(Im 99.9% sure front Rotors are identical)

really appreciate all the info from folks

The rear 350 conversion may not save weight because it is a seperate drum for the parking brake and 4 piston caliper.

Whereas OEM GTPP has an intergrated single piston caliper with parking brake. It may even be a wash.

Front rotors are not identical.

15 inches for GTPP
15.5 for gt350

Pads are also different.

GTPP 6 pot Brembos with a good 2 piece rotor like the AP racing one is a hard combo to beat. They have done exceptionally well.

I have Carbotech pads ready to go front and rear for the GTPP as well as DSUNO and DS1.11 race pads from Ferodo.

We carry Girodisc, they should be up on our site by the end of the day and they have a rear disc. There is little concern of disc cracking from drilling S550 PP rotors, they are massively thick. We also carry PowerStop PP rotors which are drilled/slotted OEM pieces if you want to look cool ;) (We ran these during a track day and they didn't break)

Do you guys ship to UK?

Does Power Stop make a slotted only front rotor for PP?

We do, as of today :headbang: Slotted Brake Rotors

Also wanted to announce that we are also a G-Loc Brake Pad Dealer. We will have everything up on our site in the coming days. We plan to put together some kits with rotors and pads soon. Also we will have Braided Brake Lines soon as well. We are close to signing a deal with one of the major fluid transfer manufacturers we worked with back in the early 90's before they were 'famous'. Good business relationships always seem to come back around :thumbsup: Lot's of stuff coming so if you don't see it please ask, we ship world-wide but please reach out to us first :cheers:

Congratulations! Very nice!
Thank you Sir! Just received in some material this week for another project to help keep the brakes cool but also pretty close to a GT350 Rear Brake Kit upgrade. We need to iron out some issues but pretty confident it will be a bolt-on upgrade in the $1500 range. We are also an Authorized Brembo Motorsports dealer so when you really want some serious braking power, keep us in mind. They do offer a rear kit that retains the parking brake function but increases the rotor size to 15" (380mm) like the front. It's designed to function without upsetting the brake bias.
