More so maybe a question for [MENTION=10893]David@Steeda[/MENTION]...

Is there any possibility or plan for either 2 piece rotors or a brake upgrade kit for the base GT? It looked like AP Racing/Essex was going to do one but that seems to be fizzling out or a non-starter. I know a few people who have run the Steeda S197 brake kit and really liked it especially since it was properly designed for the car...

Just a thought :thumbsup:

Hey bud, we've definitely started the conversation on this option, although as MustangCollector stated, two-piece rotors are a bit more pricey than one-piece. I'll keep you updated!

Oh I know 2 piece rotors would be more spendy for not a ton of gain..

It just seems, right now, the only way to get a lighter brake system for the base GT is the Aerospace Components drag/ProStreet kit..which isn't exactly ideal for a daily driver. Mind you I know Kelly and RB run the Aerospace kit, but it seems a bit light duty for really spirited driving.

Even something that could shave 15 pounds (total) off the front end would be helpful.

Totally agree, I'm with you - will talk to the team!

I just want some steeda slotted rotors for a non-pp GT. Can we make this happen?

A brake kit to run 15'' rear wheels would be awesome too!
