Question on brakes for SN95 98GT

[Damondo]

Is anyone familiar with or have this installed on their car? I want to upgrade my system but dont want to pay out the ass for it.

1994-04 Mustang Sve 13" Cobra Style Front Brake Kit at LRS - Same Day Shipping!

If anyone has any tips or other suggestions, I'm all ears.

Thanks.

Price sounds about right, though (if you don't mid buying used) you could have them for a lot less if you look around for a used set. The swap is very simple and straight forward, you will need 17" wheels to clear the 13" brakes

Yeah I have 17's on my car now. I wouldnt mind using a used set.

Any advice on where I should look?

Check the classifieds in any of the popular Mustang forums, here, corral.net, svtperformance.com, etc, etc, also check craigslist

Another thing you can do is buy stock 99-04 GT calipers and rotors. They are a dual piston PBR caliper as well. The rotors are not as large but offer a great upgrade in stopping. The actual friction surface is just as large as the Cobra. The Cobra rotors are larger and dissipate heat more, being the major gain with those. I talked to guys that road course race there GT's and was told this is a better cost effective upgrade over Cobra brakes. With a good pad the 99-04 GT brakes will work great. The rear calipers are the same on both cars, Cobras use a vented rotor though not solid.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll see what I can come up with.
