Brake caliper WILWOOD or Brembo

Brembo Brake caliper

Just finished porsche junkyard cayeene Brembo 18z from a junk yard. Super cheap score. Fronts came out great but my audi wheels wont fit. The spokes hit the caliper. So i ordered 10mm spacers and longer lugs.

Pros: super cheap score
Cons: wheels wont fit
Vehicle: Porsche Cayenne

WILWOOD Brake caliper

If you get a wilwood superlite caliper, the pads will be cheaper and are 20mm thick. They aren’t a top of the line caliper but should be more than enough. Also you can run endurance pads. I use raybestos st43 although those seem hard to get now. Pagid rsl29 or ebc sr11 will be endurance pads with similar or slightly less mu.

Pros: cheaper, 20mm thick

I have wilwood's forged dynapro 6 brake calipers and the pads wildwood suggest for that setup and I stop on a dime ngl but even when I had a stock FiST the braking never seemed to crazy tho

Pros: stops on a dime

Brembo Brake caliper

Here's my 03 Jetta TDI. I used 986 generation non-S Porsche Boxster Brembo 4 pot calipers front and rear with OEM Brembo pads and hardware. I went with these over the 17Z/18Z big 6 pots so I wouldn't have to install a different master cylinder as the factory one doesn't move enough fluid to actuate those big brakes effectively.

Pros: effective braking, fluid actuation

For brakes, I went with Willwood 4 piston calipers with 10.1in rotors and a disk conversion in the rear. So, now I can stop, and have a lil less scary ride.

Pros: less scary ride
Vehicle: Volkswagen
