    Wilwood Brake Setup

    I'm looking for a Wilwood brake setup if anyone is wanting to part with theirs. I don't want to buy a brand new setup if I don't have to. I'm trying to save as much money on my build as possible. Thanks.

    My brakes are KVRs but what they really are are 2004 Corvette brakes (at least the calipers and brake pads are), not sure if it is the same for Wilwood but they may be off the shelf parts from a different car.

    Where did you purchase them, and are you looking to sell?

    I can almost guarantee that anyone who's done the Wilwood brake upgrade won't part with them.

    Anyone ever use a 2004 Corvette calipers, pads, and rotors?
    Would that not be interesting on a Marauder?

    Bump. I'm looking for anything better than stock size rotors. I've got Power Slot rotors and adaptive one pads on the car now, but with the extra power this is not going to cut it. Baer, KVR, Wilwood is what I'm looking for and I can paypal upon receiving pics. Thanks.
