The genesis has overhang

Thank you! Also glad i didnt get it lol. God a set of tl type s brembos on the way.
Do people rebuild them? Or just throw em on. I neeeded pads qnd rotors anyway. So hopefully these have more of a bite then oem

27won seems to be the best. although the price is higher (~$1600). i've been trying to find a used kit so i can get a custom powder coat done but haven't come across a deal yet.
Genesis has the overhang
Wilwood kit doesn't use the whole rotor and looks goofy

Yeah im just going for the economy 4 piston setup for now.
The 27won grabs like a mf. A fella took me for a rip in his si in nc. And those bitches slow ya ddown right quick

yea the only con of the 27won kit is the rotor replacement is $600ish last i checked. 2 piece rotors are pricey.

Yeah. I cant justify that nuch money on brakes. Qnd to replace them.

I'm looking to do this swap as well. I originally wanted to go the Genesis route but don't want to deal with overhang. I'm currently debating between RL caliper or TL Type S ones. Only thing I'm worried about on the Type S swap is having to bore the caliper bracket to 14mm.

 

[Tyler.iguess]

I wouldn't worry about it. They arnt expensive I don't think.
Im getting my seal kit tomorrow.
So im gonna soda blast em and repaint them. To install with coilovers

 

[st4xor]

What's your plan for rotors? Stock Si rotor size? Or TL Type S rotors? Any retrofitting required for the TL-S rotors?

 

[Tyler.iguess]

I have tl type s rotors per the brake guide recommendation
Qnd they definitely seem heavi3r then my si ones.
I gotta finish painting the calipers just sanded thrm down today. Drill the knuckles out to q 14mm and toss em on with my braided lines
