Calipers

[Marco01]

What kinds of calipers are all the teams running this year? Were using Willwood single pot and they're HUGE!!!!! Were looking to find something a little smaller in terms of width. We were thinking about Brembo's. Does anybody know their width??...whats the best calipers out there??

We currently use the wilwood dynalite singles. Its a very good caliper, and I don't really have any complaints about it

So I got a price from MSI on a couple of the new AP CP6465 pull-type master cylinders, I fugured, you know, 90 bucks a piece.......no. $465 for a pair of 'em (mor eor less, anyway).

They sure make a nice stuff, though, it's just not worth it on a FSAE car.

[Ben Beacock]

are you sure its not $465 each? i seem to remember our brake guy telling me over $900 to do the pull style pedals. we did get a good laugh though.

We are using motorcycle calipers, nice and light with lots of power. And cheap too, if you can find the right set on ebay http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif.
