I have a set of the brembo 4 piston brakes from a 2000 cobra r I will be trying to fit to my 88 saleen. It already has the 95 cobra calipers and spindles so they should just bolt right on. But my question is do they use they use the same brake pad as the cobra calipers? thanks in advance Chris

As long as you have the caliper mounting brackets you are good to go, and of course you will need the lines and rotors, but the spindles are the same.

Different pads. You'll have to go to Brembo for them.


Also, you might have wheel clearance problems. There are only some 17" wheels that clear them. Most people have to run 18's. Not sure what you have on your car
