Calipers utilize larger-than-stock pads (pads not included). The increase in friction material volume prolongs pad life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel brake hoses are included, replacing the stock rubber hoses for improved pedal feel and increased reliability under the extreme stress of open track use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eTech\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMM developed these IRS brake kits on our own American Iron racecar because we found the temperature of our standard Cobra rear rotors exceeded 1,200 degrees at the end of a track session. Once we installed this kit our rotor temperatures were reduced to less than 900 degrees, and the rigid four-piston caliper greatly improved brake pad life and pedal feel by eliminating taper wear of the pads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe lower center of gravity, longer wheelbase, better weight balance, and improved suspension of a racecar reduces forward weight transfer during braking, which gives the car the ability to utilize more rear brake bias than a street-oriented Mustang suspension can tolerate. Dialing in more rear brake with an adjustable proportioning valve will overwhelm the thermal capacity of the stock Cobra rear brakes. The larger rotors of the MM kit provide more thermal mass, allowing an increase in rear brake bias while keeping temperatures lower than with the stock Cobra rotors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe increase in thermal capacity provided by this MM kit allows increasing the rear brake bias. This allows a more proper match of the rear brake capacity to upgraded front brakes. A better balanced, better performing brake system not only shortens stopping distances, it inspires driver confidence, which leads to lower lap times.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe MM IRS Racing Brake Kit should only be installed with properly matching front brakes. The appropriate \u003cem\u003eminimum\u003c\/em\u003e size front rotor is the standard Cobra 13\" rotor. The thicker rotors of a StopTech front brake kit are much more desirable. The stock Cobra aluminum PBR sliding-bridge calipers are the \u003cem\u003eminimum\u003c\/em\u003e suitable front caliper choice. Fixed-mount four-piston front calipers provide a much more balanced match with the Wilwood calipers of this MM kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Maximum Motorsports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48141327204610,"sku":"MM-MMBAK-16","price":1897.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0787\/0618\/0354\/files\/mmbak-16_lg.jpg?v=1784983504","url":"https:\/\/www.lethalperformance.com\/products\/maximum-motorsports-99-04-cobra-irs-racing-brake-kit-with-full-floating-rotor-hat","provider":"Lethal Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
