[QUOTE="ReplicaR, post: 706073, member: 9209"] To address a few issues in this thread. 1. You want the vanes to be venting out of the rotor, not pulling the air into the hub. If you are pulling the air into the hub, you are keeping all the heat in there, and not cooling your brakes properly. 2. The sweep area of the Cobra caliper is what it's supposed to look like on the pictures. The caliper that's commonly used on Cobras was originally designed for use on a 12 inch rotor. As it was moved onto a 13 inch rotor for more torque, the sweep did not increase. If you want to see the rotor being used completely, check out what Brembo kit looks like. I am converting from Cobra to Brembo this week, because I want to drive past the capabilities of Cobra calipers. [/QUOTE]
