Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

So, there is theoretical p&p caliper and 374mm brake swap from Mperformance BMWs, i know @razorlab tried this and did let go due to lack of pad options but it seems now there is CSG C1X pad that is listed for those calipers, so it should fit, I think. Benefit could be some more heat capacity and bit better braking.
A90 final edition uses 395mm upgrade from BMW 5, x5 etc, so 1 step above 374 ones in BMW range.
I may try this if i get calipers for some low price just to see how it is.

Yea you can find them for pretty cheap, I think it's hard to find 18's to fit over them though.

What's the part number for the CSG pads that fit the calipers?

Im running 19" atm so no problem for me, they fit SOME of the 18" i heared.
Well, duno the number, was just browsing pads and scrolled down on the site i posted and added it to basket to check if it works.
c1x is supposed to be better c21 repalcement

$650 lmao

And I thought cobalt pads were pricey ?

Are you guys booting your rod ended parts? Verkline sends boots with all this stuff and I've never booted a rod end. Looking for general opinions. My car is low miles and sees no weather, inclined to leave them off.

Great question! I’ll have to look at mine and/or ask the guy that put them on. Why not put them on when tracking? Especially since they came with them. My car gets dirty as ?

What about pad options for AP Racing or Wilwood big brake kits? What size are those and are there plenty of track pads avail for them?

I hate that Ferodo pad. It’s touchy, squishy, and overheated after 1 lap for me. A lot of stopping power but otherwise terrible in every way.

In my experience in the Sandy coastal South boots just trap moisture and sand/grit

Interesting, coz I heared only good stuff about it. What are You on atm?
I'm in my "i wana try diferent pads" period, may try EBC SR11 next...

I'm trying Endless ME20 this summer

I wouldn't bother. They really aren't great track pads.

CSG C1X line for the front (they make some higher friction versions that I use for big power tracks) and C21, C18, or C11 in the rear.

And why is that?

I've been asking in this thread multiple times over the past year about them and nobody seemed to have tried them...
