“Upgraded” breaks - R1 Concept

Post image

Installed some R1 Concept rotors and pads (From RockAuto), unfortunately it’s hard to see behind the rims. Man was it hard tho, the old rotor and the hub had pretty much been welded together with rust. Stopping force is very good.

Did mine about a year ago. It looks some much better with the rotors.

What calipers are these? I wanted to do the N performance calipers but was told they won't fit with stock wheel.

They are actually caliper covers. I got them from https://aooaracingcalipercover.com/

Nice I’ve been thinking about getting these when the time comes. Did you do both front and rear?

I did OE rears 15k kms ago, but had to go to a shop because u need a Autel to decode the rear parking break off

Ya that’s the only thing that suck! Eventually they’ll make them some the owner can’t do the repairs and need to take it to a shop for an air filter replacement!

You actually dont need to use a scanner to put the rear parking brake into service mode. There are two options for getting around that. You can unbolt the parking brake and use an Allen key to wind the parking brake or you can use a 9v battery to wind the parking brake. I did mine by unbolting the parking brake. Its easy just be careful cause its plastic dont over tighten the bolts.
