Anyone tried Wilwood discs?

looking for an upgrade on my non-Brembo 32 GTR, already brought 8 pot K-sport calippers.

Using 17" from a 33 and not looking for bigger wheels.

Brackets will be custom i think, but i need to get better discs in the rear also...

Advice about the topic in general is great!

We wsed to run Willwod quit abit on our muscle cars but we have since switched to Areospace components. We find they slow down the 3600lb Hemi Cuda from 140mph better plus thay are quite abit lighter then the willwood offerings Aerospace Components
On my GTR I run Brembos.

this is for a track-car, not dragster.

repeated (ab)use for 30 min...

Yes I know. Thats why I run brembos on my GTR. But if you go to the website and look . They also offer and brake option for track cars.

I can highly recommend Wilwood's, running them on my car with no problems, not much track driving but very hard road use and they are holding up fine. Hope this help's.
