DDM Works Big Brake Kit in works

[$ub$onic]

I see it and I want it even more.

Dave has probably been to busy with derps turbo to finish any other projects

Coincidence for the delay?

I contacted wilwood about there brake on the sonic. they just said they are custom brackets and they are not making kits for them at this time..

What I"m saying is perhaps Dave has been working with GM Performance Parts on this bracket and has to play by their rules for its release.

I'm just saying - it may not be a coincidence he hasn't gotten them finished yet - especially since GM is releasing a BBK with Wilwood calipers. Think about the great press and opportunity this could create for him!

I could be totally full of poop (just ask my two ex-wives) - but if I'm on to something, this is exciting for DDM Works.
:banana:

Did you at least get a part number for the caliper?

What's wrong with the zzp kit for half the price?

 

[mitdr774]

I dont know if the GM kit is the same as the DDM kit. The GM kits comes with bigger rotors per the catalog. As far as I know the DDM kit is supposed to work with stock rotors and 15" wheels. Will the GM kit clear 15" wheels?

The issue with the ZZP kit is the same as the potential issue with the GM kit. The ZZP kit wont work with a stock 15" wheel.

I don't think gm's kit will fit in 15's

 

[Larrymer]

GM kit has fixed calipers it looks like, ZZP are floating.

 

[mitdr774]

DDM is also a fixed caliper. I want the DDM front upgrade and ZZP rear disks, assuming the rears will clear a stock 15" wheel.

The rears will clear

I was not sure if you had thrown 15s on yet. Now DDM just needs to release the front upgrade kit.

I only have 15's but yes. I put both oem and my aftermarket rims on. Steve at zzp was not sure if they would fit. So I tested it

 

[mitdr774]

For some reason I thought you had 16s on the car right now. My mistake.

 

[$ub$onic]

Nope. I was cheap and reused my factory tires

 

[Mikeygoolsbay]

any update on the kit yet?

 

[$ub$onic]

Yes, update.

 

[mitdr774]

Im looking for a reason to change my front brakes. I dont want to replace the pads yet since they are well over 50% remaining, but a new caliper and pad upgrade would be a damn good excuse.

I'm looking/waiting for an update on this as well. I was looking at the ZZP kit, but they don't offer the ability to have colored rotors. Has anyone else bought the DDM colored rotors, and if so, have you paired them with aftermarket larger calipers?

There has to be some median ground between stock and $2K Brembo...
