Autotalent and Stoptech Trophy Kit
I just want to say thank you to Golan at AutoTalent for the great service and deal he gave me for a new set of front and rear Stoptech Trophy BBK.
I reached out to Golan a few weeks ago and he responded back to me very quickly and gave me an awesome price that I couldn't resist. I knew Autotalent was an authorized Stoptech dealer and I have heard that they also worked on some incredible expensive looking cars not just BMW www.autotalent.com ... and to be honest I was a little hesitant in contacting Golan at first....I didn't think he would give me the time of day. I'm glad I did....because he has nothing but been very nice, responsive and helpful with my purchase. If you have any questions or looking to get a new set BBK I wouldn't hesitate to contact Golan and Autotalent . My items arrived yesterday and the packaging is as expected...everything brand new, sealed and still wrapped from factory. These things are so gorgeous I don't even want to take them out the plastic. I plan on doing the install myself once weather gets warmer and time permits. And also plan on adding some install pics. I attached a few quick pics below of the kit and my car still with winter wheels and tires on. 1st Day of Spring in NJ: |

Update 5/20/2015:
It's finally been nice out last week and had sometime off work to install the kit. Overall instructions and install was easy to follow. The only thing I didn't end up installing was the 2 inner brake lines. I couldn't get my hands in there and it looked like it was going to take awhile and pain to put in. I figured next time I have to bleed the brakes I would try and tackle the job. Brake pedal feels firm and stiff. Had to bed the brakes twice to get a firmer feel. I can't say enough how I love these BBK. I would like to thank Golan again from Autotalent for giving me an amazing deal on this kit! And also SeanS54 for his diy vid! Took a few pics during the install: Last edited by Gennosuke; 05-26-2015 at 04:10 PM.. |

Dope whip! Once I go FBO I plan on doing BBK.. Unless I find a steal before then, I am one who can vouch at what a huge difference these brakes make... Did the same kit on my ITR and it was night/day..!

A tip for doing the mid lines: get yourself a *hinged* flare nut wrench. It's very hard to do the job without one (unless you drop the subframe of course).
For example: http://www.amazon.com/OEM-25955-Wren.../dp/B008985WQ2 |
