What do you guys think of the strange brake set up for a 9 sec. street/strip car?

I have them on my car, and like them... keep in mind they are really not intended for street use...

Tons of threads on the same question

Ill have mine on my car one day, keep in mind it get like no more then 1000 miles and year, and only gets on the highway to go to the track and thats only because I don't have a truck and trailer right now.

IT WOULD NOT be the way to go or safe to buy on a daily driver.

Would be dangerous if you ask me.

If you are like me and just take it out to local cruise spots and all then I would think you wold be ok but don't take my word for it.

i loved mine on the street, stop waaaaaaaay better than factory brakes, just dont do alot of stopping, worse case you warp a rotor and realize you stop to much, lol. i never had problem with mine and drove them all the time

Curious, those who have these brakes on the rear, how do you go about your routine for a burnout? obviously these rotors warp very easy. i have them as well as a line lock but havent had a chance to try them out yet.

well, the linelock when installed properly releases the rear brakes, so you won't have to worry about them warping....

yeah but im wondering those with out them if its some what safe, or if the first time these bad boys will disentegrate, sometimes its hard to find a water box in the middle of no where. oh well i guess i will just have to make sure im prepared everytime.

i got ya... yeah without a linelock i definitely wouldn't do it. on my 6speed car i didn't have a linelock, so i'd have to do the sidestep then slam on the brakes, it warped my wilwood hd rotors

I just got a set of the aerospace prostreet brakes, very light 4 piston calipers front and rear, thin split rotors and capable of daily driving. You may want to check them out.

Were the brakes complete with everything? How much? Where to get them?

Do you have the part # for those? What size are the rotors?

I tried this in the last thread, but nobody seemed to have an answer. Do the strange front brakes allow for the use of a wider 15 inch front wheel? I'd like to have a set of matching wheels, but don't want to run skinnies on the street with as much driving as I do.

eLTwerker

Yes, that's why I want to switch out my C5 front brakes to Strange.
