the worse problem with valiant brakes is the calipers make a lot of noise, by fitting the VY-VZ you eliminate the noise and upgrade with 2 or 4 spot calipers depending on base model or SS. I will try and find the article I read about doing this swap. Cheers Mark
That would be sweet mate!!
Yeah (imo) for the performance the charger has the stock brakes are nothing short of :shutup: and the wheels road test also said they had poor braking with terrible fade ect so As far as brakes go im going to be doing a completely new setup with possibly a VT booster!! I have rang up Repco and their supplier (DBA) can supply me with a slotted/drilled rotor for $150 each, The repco DBA are 280mm but the ones in the hoppers kit are 300mm drilled/slotted and come with a hub conversion kit + adapter/bearings to suit the twin piston caliper upgrade ect! but it also cost $1350 for the kit
so will have to give it some thought as i really want the 300mm rotors! But if i can fit the VY-VZ twin piston calipers and the repco DBA rotors I will defineatly look @ that option to save some $$$$ i can always use the money i save for more performance parts
Anyway the other night (on a side note) the missus and i pulled up to the lights and a dodge phoenix pulled up next to us rumbling away ect the bloke was playing some old school Elvis, was a mad ride, he gave it a little off the lights, was nothing short of magic...!!!
