Hello, this is Patti from Caliperfexion. You did a great job with the installation. One thing I'd like to point out. You mentioned potential galling and stainless, and you're not mistaken. The steps we in recommend to avoid galling are to never remove the fasteners when they are too hot to touch by hand, never use impact tools on brake hardware (unless you plan on throwing it away), and to use the included thread lubricant along with the requisite adjusted torque figure. Installing the 4340 CT10 studs dry isn't an issue but there is an advantage to using the ARP lubricant there too as it will provide accurate and consistent torque readings along with enhanced corrosion protection. Beyond that we really enjoyed the video. Good job!

thanks for checking this video out,

[@gnosism]

Are you making more kits? I dont see them on your website.

[@bradc5633]

Nice tip on cutting a groove in the old stud.. I’m always trying to clean out with a pick 😥

[@TABRO284]

Really useful tip on slitting the bolt. I really like the slider tools for the studs.

[@MrDaviddannunzio]

As always - quality video on quality products with real practical performance improvements. I put this same set on my GT350 and loved it. Great for track day pad swapping.

[@francoisrivard893]

Great video, I absolutely love the OCD approach! Extremely thorough and the best prevention for avoiding issues later. Well done and something I will definitely do on mine for this upcoming track season.

[@autofanaticcars]

glad this video is a good guide to do yours it really is a great upgrade to swap pads if you use the OEM bolts each time you will curse in agony.

[@robertoruizantonetti6385]

Excellent tip for softening the locktite with the torch.

[@corrieb74]

This is brilliant. Just ordered a set.

[@rix350]

Good stuff. Many thanks 🙏🏻 for your time and great videos.

[@autofanaticcars]

Have you tried the akubono pads ? If you do you like them?

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

4th from Puerto Rico 👍🇵🇷

[@bobbob-jw6zf]

Will you have a video about the Hawk Performance Ceramic pads?

[@slyr1]

Great video but what’s the knees the way or a special tool to push in the Pistons

[@autofanaticcars]

remove the master cylinder cap and i use my fingers which are strong to push the pistons back or you can easily use a soft jaw squeeze clamp

[@Smllc22318]

Great video. Are you not using a piston compressor before placing the new pads?

[@autofanaticcars]

No i never use those, if i ever need to compress pistons i open the master cylinder cap and i use a rubber jaw squeeze clamp or my fingers its pretty easy once you let the pressure out by loosening the cap at the master

[@DirtDude117]

These would be awesome for the Subaru people with the STI Brembos that seize up all the time. Bucky could do a video on it too.

[@Chase_AM]

Its not really an option with the Subaru brembos due to the mounting bolts being perpendicular to the rotor, not parallel like this application.

[@smcsmc4209]

What kind of pads do you use. I have a 19 and the original pads make bad dust.

[@autofanaticcars]

try the Hawk 5.0 or the Hawk Ceramics much less dust and still great brakes on the street but if you push the car very hard stick with the OEM

[@thorbansellers4433]

i went to the site to see about ordering them from calperfexion and it doesn't show the extension studs where did you get them?

[@autofanaticcars]

there on the site or send them an email

[@thorbansellers4433]

@@autofanaticcars well i went to caliperfexion.net/ is that the correct site? anyway it doesn't show the extension studs so I did send them a question about it. Thank you for the video.

Getting famous off comments day 188, so I can live the dream, live everyday like it’s your last day🤙🚀

[@slyr1]

who sells the studs can’t find them on there sites

[@autofanaticcars]

the company no longer sells these and nobody else offers a solution

[@k15goose]

I can't find these studs anywhere.... anyone know a source??

[@autofanaticcars]

Company no longer in business

[@k15goose]

@autofanaticcars caliperfexion isn't but there's gotta be a part number with ARP, no? How do I find that??

[@scaryperryx1050]

The reason why I am spending this Video is for Performance Improvements if you didn't already know...

[@josephgarrel5728]

These are now made by op mustang he bought the company

[@autofanaticcars]

Thanks for sharing this info

[@missmymissy]

Too bad Caliperfexion seems to be out of Business

[@autofanaticcars]

I did reach out to them a while back they said they plan to offer these kits again but the supply shortages and material inflation makes it very hard to do niche manufacturing now. it is a shame what has happened to the world in a short 2 years it has devastated so many small business in all industries.

[@gnosism]

yeah.. :(

[@lahfarla4066]

😆 torch heating the bolts totally unnecessary.

[@autofanaticcars]

you obviously have not worked on enough of these to know, i have and heat works
