I didn,t realise what you did till i looked at the KORE3 site and that i could fit the bigger ZO6 discs , oh well i know now . I liked the ali front hubs and the caliper brackets , it would be easier for me to just get some new parts instead of machining my own . Thanks Pete
That's great that you're planning on cooling ducts from the start, as it'll give you a leg up with respect to keeping your brakes cool. If you're burning up bearings with your current setup, it sounds like you have a lot of room for improvement. Aluminum hubs, ducts, and bigger/better rotors are your friend. Let us know if we can help out with anything and good luck, regardless of what you choose to do brakewise.
