Stillen Brake Cooling Ducts


Recommended Posts

Posted

I can't find any specific information on these, so I thought I'd drop a small review up.

 

When I first got Abbey top install the GTM SC kit, we agreed on fitting uprated pads (Hawk)/Discs(Stoptech grooved) and braided lines. 

 

This was great for day to day road use but the first NissShow at Donnington Heritage Loop passenger rides showed up a little cooling issue.

 

I say little, because I thought I was going to have to use my extinguisher.

 

After about 12 laps there was smoke and serious fad.

 

So, after a bit of a read about in a few places they blamed poor air flow around the brakes, I opted for the Stillen Duct kit and the the following year no more smoke.

 

The loop was hard on the gas, hard on the brakes a lot and no real cooling time so for bigger tracks I might not have had such as issue, but if anyone does have brake problems, I can recommend the duct kit.
