Hi Guys,
I just got this info from Bob at Race Technologies. Race Tech is one of 2 distributors in the USA for genuine Brembo products, and its the source we use b\c they are awesome on stocking parts for the Supra. Anyhow, I wanted to pass this along, I thought you might find it interesting.
Hey Guys!
I just got this information from Brembo.
The Brembo 4-Piston F50 Caliper with the 14" (355mm) dia. Rotor Produces 9.8% more Brake Torque than the equivalent AP system with the AP 6-Piston Caliper!
Brake Torque is based on Piston Size and Effective Radius and is completely un-related (not effected by) to pad size.
Therefore, the Brembo Supra 14" Kit will feel & respond 10% better than the AP 6-Piston Kit.
If you want more technical information related to this let me know & I will try to get it today.
Bob
I'm glad I just put the 14" Brembo on my street car, I can't wait to get it broken in!
Later,
Dusty
