Front set up I have is available with 13" rotor meant to work with OEM A mold. Rear set up I have (12.8" rotor) fits inside 11" wide A mold.

Okay, great. Thanks Yun! I'll get with you and see what all the options are.

Rear set up is from Revolution Brake LLC.
http://store.revolutionbrake.com/14-0106.html

It required some massaging to make it work including parking brake cable bracket under the car being cut/welded by 3/4" and having to shave outboard brake pad by 3/16" and adding 3/16" thick aluminum piece to shim inboard pad. Otherwise, this was the simplest parking brake solution I found and it works!

Thanks I will look into it and start saving now :-D

Hey Yun,

I just got off the phone with Kevin from Revolution Brakes. After your issue in 2013 the brackets were corrected with the next order. The kits from Revolution Brakes are good to go now and direct bolt on with no modifications. Great news and I'm in! He said they can also powdercoat colors for those that don't want the Wilwood black for some bling.

Thanks again!

That's great! I'm glad to hear my feedback to Revolution Brakes actually made them improve the product.
Let me know if I can help as you move forward.

Like GC, I have to save those pennies. Kevin sends his regards and wishes they could have fixed your issue; but he knew you are an Engineer. Like -=Jeff=- said, no mods should have to be done to a specific application kit. You are a pioneer. My problem is I think I might want to put stock wheels back on (for what reason, not sure other than to track?) so very limited and this is the best option I have seen so far. Thanks again! :saluting:

What he doesn't have, he will machine it himself.
