AirStrike Donating Members 387 Member For: 15y 11m 23d Gender: Male Posted 18/11/12 05:46 AM Share Posted 18/11/12 05:46 AM Been looking at upgrading the brakes on my FG for a little while and was thinking if anything fitted to the Ford's in the US is suitable at all? Before anyone mentions brembo's I have no interest in them since I want to keep the standard wheels on the car.Has anyone looking into what is fitte to the Mustangs at all? From looking at pictures the 03/04 Cobra Stang's look like they have a similar setup to the BA premium setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custom brackets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The calipers are cheap but will soon run you factory brembo coin once you get brackets designed and machined 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
