Jonah R is a chef at an East Bay restaurant during the week and an avid road racer on weekends. He met fellow track junky Scott Smith at SCCA school and Scott recommended ZCG to help with braking issues. Jonah was overheating his brakes so he visited us to have the calipers rebuilt along with other track preparation items.
The AP Racing calipers were extremely heat discolored from track abuse. The calipers were refreshed with new seals and dust boots:
Earlier in March we installed engine and differential coolers:
More track prep including windows, gauges, switch-panel, OS Giken Super-Lock limited slip differential:
Jonah simply needed more braking capacity. We chose the Stoptech Trophy(RACE) Kit. This is Stoptech’s latest design with mil-spec coated calipers/hats and improved rigidity. They even offer the Trophy kit in a street-friendly package. *Spoiler Alert* Stoptech’s Trophy kit may have helped Jonah win the trophy!
Behold these burly binders in all their glory:
14″ 6-piston fronts
13″ 2-piston rears
…Jonah’s superior driving earned him the trophy and championship in the 2012 San Francisco Region Super Touring Over series! He had eight 1st place finishes, one 2nd place and a DNS at Thunderhill. Congratulations Jonah!
