Hi guys,

I just wanted to introduce a new product that we here at LG Motorsports will be offering as well as a special introductory savings for you on this exciting new product!



Unmatched braking ability, pedal feel, modulation, and durability once only shown to race teams are now available for Corvette owners. PFC's Z-Rated brake upgrades for Corvette's front and rear Z-rated kits are engineered for torque balance and un-compromised operation of the factory ABS system. These also retain the stock "drum-in-hat" parking brake for a true bolt on system. These will be the basis for the same brakes to be used on LGMotorsport's upcoming GrandAm race cars!


SAVINGS!!
Purchase now from LG Motorsports at $3395 for the front kit and get $400 LGM credit good at the time of purchase or save for up to 3 months on your next purchase from LG! Buy the entire car set for $6790 and get $800 LGM Credit!!!

*Credit does not apply towards brake purchase, but to any other additional items. Can be transferred.

Special ends January 20th.



PFC ZR31 Calipers

• Race proven ZR31 monobloc calipers
• Solid bridge design with 4 pistons
• CNC machined from solid billet high temp. aluminum alloy
• Stainless Steel pad abutments
• Intergrated bleeder and crossover pipe guards
• Short aspect ratio design yields stiffer caliper body
• 100% pressure tested at the factory
• Includes DOT-FMVSS 106 spec. braided steel lines

PFC's Exclusive V2 Direct Drive attachment system

• Two piece full floating V2 Attachment hardware
• 362mm x 32mm (14.25" x 1.25") front rotor
• 371mm x 30mm (14.50" x 1.00") rear rotor
• High Carbon alloy rotor with copper and molybdenum for max. temperature strength
• Aircraft quality heat treatment
• Rotor run-out held to less than 0.0005" tolerance
• Rotor thickness variation less than 0.0002"

PFC Brake Pads

• Z-Rated Carbon Metallic Multipads formulated for car fitment
• Higher coefficient pads for severe duty use
• Torque matched to larger two piece front and rear rotors
• Non-asbestos pads

The Short aspect ratio 4 piston caliper design yields a stiffer caliper body to reduce drag and temperature as well as improving release over a heavier 6 piston caliper. Giving the customer less un-sprung weight per corner and more uniform pad wear. The monobloc CNC caliper body with integrated bridge improves response by increasing caliper stiffness. This also reduces deflection and pad taper giving you more pad life.

V2 Direct Drive attachment method floats the rotor flange together with the had and spreads the torque takeout load. Re-usable hat assembly reduces lifetime costs. V2 attachment with anti-rattle washers improves control and release. Also eliminating vibration and pulsation and reducing piston knock back which already plagues Corvette racers.

Look for Performance Friction Brakes on upcoming LG Motorsports GrandAm Race cars!

Will either fit with stock wheels ?
If so , which ones ?

0Anthony @ LGMotorsports

It is going to require a 18" wheel. I can email you a fitment guide, and I will have that up in our Instructions tab in the morning as well as other Tech information on our site.

Neato

Rats !

Neato

Does anyone make 4 or 6 piston calipers that will fit the stock wheels ?

0Anthony @ LGMotorsports

Have you looked at our G-Stop package?

If you are using the 18x10.5 Z06 wheel at all four corners I believe you would have no issues with the PFC setup however.

Anthony.

I use CCW Classic Track 18x12 front and 18x13 rear with 3/8" spacer.
Non street use. and I have used teh PFC-01 pads in the past

Sounds like they might fit

TIA
Tom

Tom,

email me, and I'll send you the wheel fitment templates. I will try to have them in our Instructions tab on our home page later today as well.

AU N EGL

Email sent

0Anthony @ LGMotorsports

Replied! I should have them up shortly as well.

Remember the credit can be saved for THREE MONTHS! You can also give it to a friend, or use however you would like!

Anthony - can you tell us a little about the pads:
- there are 4 'padlettes' as opposed to two large pads, similar to the C6Z06 (it has 6). What are pros and cons to this? Most folks don't seem to like the paddlets on the Z.
- Who makes pads for this caliper and what is replacement cost for track pads
- How do you change the pads...can you do it with the caliper mounted or do you have to remove the caliper?
- and, a rotor question, what are replacement rings going to cost?

Very tempting...

Thanks, Brad

0Anthony @ LGMotorsports

Brad,

Keep in mind, while this is an individual pad per piston design, it is not the same as the OE padlets that have to rely on small pins to hold them and a caliper the flexes to the point of all but bending in half. These calipers are sealed with solid pad abutments in them so think of it more as two calipers built into one.

You will have to remove the caliper for a pad change, again strength and stiffness of the body of the caliper were more in mind on this design.

I should have a full break down of caliper upgrades, pad selection, replacement parts and prices in the morning.

Also, for those that have the wheel clearance to do it, there will be a full blown race caliper upgrade with no rotor or bracket changes.

Get your orders in early guys, SALE ENDS January 20th!!!

After the sale ends, pricing will go back to $3995 ea with no LG Credit!!!

Anthony,

For C5 correct? If running 18" wheels all around,what size tires, does it matter? Looks like a great winter project, if I finsih all my other LG upgrades, then this will be next!

0Anthony @ LGMotorsports

I have the brake fitment templates located here on our site: http://lgmotorsports.com/gallery/thu...s.php?album=23

Make sure they will work with your wheels. You are going to need a 18" wheel to clear them for sure. The rear C5Z wheel should give you enough room.

Tire sizes, depends on what you are doing with the car, there are a number of options that you can go with. Any rules limiting what you need?

7thz16

No rules on tire size as far as my activities, just wondering since I am still running stock 17's in front w/stock floating - 2 piston - calipers.

Stock rotors and carbotech (P12) pads seem to last about 4 track days up front, 8 max on rear (P10). Stock rotors are cheap, can they be used with PFC calipers? (I drove the PFC's at Bondurant - they are extremely consistent!).

Stock (C5) calipers don't seem to make it more than one season before needing rebuild or replacement as well, another hidden cost.

0Anthony @ LGMotorsports

You won't be able to use stock rotors with this kit. The calipers have a completely different annulus and offset for the rotor. They were just built around a bigger rotor.

Your going to see a much longer life from these rotors than OE, and as far as replacement costs go at $297 ea rotor it isn't a bad deal at all when looking at comparable BBK's.

Most guys won't have to touch these calipers for a long time as far as rebuilds go. The bodies themselves will FAR outlast any stock PBR caliper.

7thz16

very cool. So what about tire sizes w/18" wheels up front? My concerns vs. 17" are interferences during turning (are there any) and the change in rake (front to rear).

0Anthony @ LGMotorsports

A lot of guys will run a 305 all the way around, now that is going to stick out a bit up front with stock fenders. I would not suggest that for those for a normal street car.

275 through 295's would work very well. A lot of this is going to depend on what size wheel you go with, and what size rear tire so we can determine heights.

So to answer your question it is a little more than one simple answer.
