The thing is, ERA has successfully used exactly the same setup for many years on hundreds of cars. All the components out to the calipers are included in the basic kit. No further engineering is necessary. If it doesn't work well, there's something wrong in the individual setup.

AND------if your trying to stop-pushing in the brake pedal will take away several HORSEPOWER ( even at idle) from the energy you are trying to overcome-------and if you happen to have an engine with a high idle speed -------say 12 -1500 rpm??????????

These are not power brakes with a vacuum booster.

Other than regular flushes with ATE Super Blue, and pad change outs, mine have required zero maintenance.

It seems nobody has experienced pads that do not fit and slide right. The pads have to be able to move in the caliper to facilitate the in and out of the Pistons . Many times the metal backing off the pad will stick on the body of the caliper . Blue print the caliper and pad fitments.
