Looks great, super envious of the whole set up!

dth656 · 09-25-2018, 09:26 AM

do you have any ducting or cooling for the front brakes?

looks like an awesome setup!

Caliboy951 · 09-25-2018, 04:46 PM

Very nice, but why the change?

No, I don't have anything for ducting or cooling for my front brakes. Track consumables for the AP are much cheaper than the Brembo GT. Brembo GT Type 3 front rotors and hardware is $1500, AP is much less. Plus, no more dust boots to worry or replace anymore.

Great brakes. One of the best if not the very best. Congrats.

cfm56d7b · 09-25-2018, 09:32 PM

Definitely. Would love to get your feedback.

M3SQRD · 09-27-2018, 08:44 PM

Excellent choice! I’m running the same 9668/9449 setup (with PFC 11 pads) on my M4.

I've been able to late brake more than ever into a turn.

I just received my Essex AP Racing 9660 kit today. I'll see about installing it this weekend.

Any idea if it will clear my 18" 513M wheels? I have 5mm and 10mm spacers if needed. My StopTechs fit fine up front with no spacers.

Hey, here's an unboxing video.

Congrats! It should clear the 513M wheels. My 9668 and your 9660 have subtle differences in caliper size and how brake pads are replace. The 9668 slightly bigger and wider and is considered an endurance BBK. Moreover, it can accommodate a 25mm brake pad. Mine fits the 513M wheels with no problem. 🥂

The 513M clears my 9668 with a 12mm spacer.

FlyingLow78 · 09-13-2019, 10:42 AM

Confirmed: the 9660s fit fine under the 513Ms without a spacer.

ninekrpm · 09-13-2019, 12:03 PM

Installed on my car recently as well...will share some pics shortly.

FlyingLow78 · 09-13-2019, 01:06 PM

These were harder to bleed than either the stock brakes or Stoptechs. I had to do two complete bleeds with a drive in between to get the air out. The second time around I was surprised how much air was still in there. I have (and used) a Motive power bleeder, but the shop I use at work has a venturi-type bleeder that sucks the air out of the caliper and it’s much more effective.
