Installation: Project Mu Big Brake Kit (BBK) 355mm
Here is installation of Project Mu's Big Brake Kit. Took awhile to come in but looks like its going to be worth the wait. Rotors are 355mm (about 14")! The calipers are 4 piston and uses one pad per piston. Thats 4 pads per caliper total!
Package contents.
Teflon Brake Lines. Brings new banjo bolts, washers, adapters to connect to OEM hard lines.
Calipers, Pads and brackets
Caliper close up
Two piece 14" rotors
Project Mu quality is excellent. Installation was extremely simple though instructions w/ torque specs would have been nice. We basically followed the OEM specs.
Stock setup
Caliper removed
Rotor removed
Dust shield removed, caliper bracket installed
PMU rotor installed
PMU caliper installed. Taped up caliper in case of scratches from wheel test fitment. Installing pads. They come with PMU B-Force pads btw. Slides right in like cake.
Place retainer on pad and insert bolt to lock in the pads.
Project Kics spacers going in.
Remove old and install new brake lines. We installed the caliper side first then the chassis side. That way brake fluid wont get on to the calipers.
Bleed the system and installation complete.
Project Kics 15mm spacer clears the caliper a little too well. Im getting in 10mm later, so if anyone is interested in 15mm spacer in 2-3 months let me know. Also added Project Kics NeoChrono lug nuts which matches the caliper. Havent slammed the brakes to test how well they work but driving around town, it definitely brakes better and has excellent pedal feel.
Big thanks to Phillip @ Mackin Industries.
