I noticed OEM has a big brake kit. Just wondered if anyone already has this kit and if so how are they. they are the 12inch brake kit. Its on overkillengineeringmotorsports.com site if you guys didnt know what OEM means. heehee


ECOtec DOHC

The only person that has that.....is one of them.

At least so far as I know.

Last i heard it was going through some "renovations" to get the best setup for braking and wheel offset. Some of thier kits space the front wheel out a hair, but in general a cheaper solution to a larger front brake.

I would be interested to hear reviews from some customers though....

I have two kits going out this week, so I will have these guys post up once they get them installed.

Cant wait!!

any updates on this or is it too cold to work on your car these days, lol

There was a slight problem with the bracket. I am working on getting another set out once I get a couple dimensions.

I'd be very interested in a set of rotors from your 12" kit drilled to 5x100, if its possible to buy them separately. The kit I'm building for my Beretta needs some rotors, but I've got calipers and lines already.

Bump for joy.

Shoot me a PM or e-mail.

what modification to the knuckle needs to be done

The holes that are tapped with the 11x1.50, need to retapped to 12x1.75 and the side towards the caliper needs to be ground down about 1/4"

you mentioned on another thread that these brakes make the wheel stick out a bit. Was that ever resolved or do they really stick the tire out?? PICS !!! these look awesome though.


ECOtec DOHC

The wheel do not stick out any more. I will post pictures tonight or tomorrow.

Here is my update. I have everything mounted on the knuckle. I am going to continue to work with Mark on everything. Right now all that needs to be done is to have to caliper ground down a little more and everything will be complete. Here is a pic!!



That is with 1/4" spacer. Longer studs from a Camaro will need to be put in, but that wont cost very much.


Let me know if you guys have any questions.

Wow, even with 6mm spacing and still touching the caliper.... that sucks. Good luck with it!

It really depends on the wheel. I tried about 3 different wheels out and some fit fine some fit very very close.

which factory wheels fit?

I know the factory sunfire wheels need to have a 6 mm spacer behind them as well. I always though that the 5 spoke chrome wheels in the OP pic were factory wheels. I know they are I was just not sure on the other wheels that jake showed pics of. As long as the wheel does not pull back to far and has a 35 of so offset they should fit.

I think they should Clear my wheels lol. Have any 4-pot 17" Brake setups around?

Ill be hitting you up about these in the future.

Yeah they will clear your wheels no problem at all. We can make a 13" kit with Wilwood calipers if you like?
