#BecauseRaceCar Story and Build - M60 6-spd

[Jean]

@jean has been having some issues with his brakes.

How hard do you have to push to get the wheels to lock up? is your bias bar heavily to one side? stock calipers? what pads?

He’s got 6 piston fronts and 4 piston rears !

Nice build!

What size masters are you running for the new calipers ?

I am running dual Wilwood MCs both with 5/8" master cylinders

send some pictures of the whole front splitter set up when its done please! a friend is all about DIY aero and I'd like him to do me some on my e30

will do!

Oh wow. I am extremely interested in wing mounts your guys are building for you. Would they make an extra set I could buy? Where are you planning in mounting these on the car?

Also, could you share couple pics of how you cut your front fenders for aero efficiency?

Once these prototype wing mounts are up and tested, then I can see if he wants to make more. As for the front fender cuts, since I have no fender liners that back part of the fender acts as a scoop and creates drag. so fenders are cut and I added a panel that directs the air out.


The lowered uncovered part is cover by the sideskirts when they are mounted.

Picked up a APR GTC-200, having custom laser cut aluminum mounts and endplates designed by Kaze Spec Engineering. still waiting on a few parts.






splitter chassis mounts made by me (in progress):



Wilwood 6-piston front calipers and wilwood 4-piston rear calipers with 310mm 2-piece rotors front and rear with APEX ARC-8s:



ARC-8s repainted in crushed gold:

Been watching your build for awhile now, this in one of the swapps i would consider doing. Thanks for the info.

My one question is, What does chopping the front fenders do for you. I am having a hard time seeing a aero advantage unless i am looking at it wrong.
