Absolutely!
We take our car to the track. When we do, we put Hoosiers on the stock 18" wheels. We did not want to have to swap back to stock brakes for each event. This was a major bonus for us and our track driving customers.
You have the Grand Turismo kit which uses a slightly bigger caliper.
Trust me. We already did a test fit.

What kind of pads are available for these calipers? And what pads do you run for street use?

The track pads are noisy, dusty and do not work that well when cold.
The pads we use on the street are a street/track hybrid which are quiet and do not need nearly as much heat.
When the European Car article comes out, you will see some interesting results. All of the testing was done with the hybrids.

OK, here is an idea for anyone listening and interested. I will buy the GTR kit and sell the new rotors that come with that kit and my existing Brembo GT (8 piston front/4 piston rear) red calipers with them to someone at a very good price. This assumes the rotors are interchangable between the GT and GTR kits as I believe they are. I currently have the 15 inch front and 14 inch rear rotors.
Any takers?

Unless there is a company that sells a floating setup for the OEM rotors???

Mike, can you throw up some weight numbers on the different versions.

I don't want to spill the beans since we are doing the tech article with European Car.
We will have weights and other interesting data in an upcoming issue.

Ours are the 15" fronts with 13" rears. What size are you running?
