With a weight saving twist.:)

Got some nice Zack/Jerry calipers done up 2 tone.

Then we got some TCE lines.

Then I said ya know what. We gonna save some weight with the calipers but then add it back with the bigger rotors. Lets try and find some reasonably priced
2 piece rotors. Well reasonably priced and 2 piece rotors don't go together. I thought I saw some cheaper ones somewhere but couldn't locate them now.

So I came across Full Tilt Boogie Racing. ANd they happen to have a lightened set of 2 piece rotors for the GT500. So thats what we got.

Got some weights on the stock rotors and FTBR rotors. Will have to wait on the stock caliper weights til I break them down and install this stuff. Gotta get them on for SSHS!

wow, awesome. Lightening up the un-sprung weight is often underappreciated.

Looks Cool Sherm :2thumbs:

I'll be getting a set in black w/red letters at Louisville 2018 & sending the other hardware to Mo's a head of time for install after the Louisville meet. :bows:

Always a good thing when you can build it stronger and shed some pounds at the same time!
