That's an excellent question! Hopefully some of the information that I'm expecting from the manufacturer will help me answer that. In the meantime, someone in CL can probably shed some light...

 

Let's just say that I know a guy. However, the MSRP is available on the ksportusa.com website. The company is relatively new (10 yrs), and doesn't have the same rep as other established makes. Therefore, the price isn't as mind-blowing as you'd expect.

Relatively speaking, of course.

 

hmmm, they look nice, but I don't like the color... Do they have different colors?

 

always a big fan of bbks.........do give a follow up after you get a feel for them

 

damn it! now im going to have to do something bigger! haha looks good man Welcome to the BBK World!

 

Smaller pistons means more pressure (Pressure = Force/Area), however having too many pistons leaves less fluid pressure for each one of them so they may not clamp as hard.

 

All it takes is 1-piston before you get to the point of diminishing return. If most 1-piston calipers can already lock up the wheels, then anything more than that is just wasted. However that is not to say 1-piston is sufficient for every car. The brake feel may change as you go from 1 piston to 4, 6, etc. The Toyota Supra's brakes are some of the world strongest (even more so than most super cars), yet it uses only 4 pistons.

 

gorgeous...i think this is a first in the brake modding department in 2IS section. (12 piston that is)

 

wow they loook AmAzing!!!

 

that looks awesome

 

Wow sick!!!!

 

nope hes not the first doug takes the crown on that.. he runs 12p on custom bbk

 

There's just more pistons where the seals can go bad..good luck man!

 

damn those are huge brakes!

 

yea.. ddquach was the first to get the 12 piston BBK... too bad he parted out his car already.
