This is a project we have been working on that is really near and dear to my heart, since I am notoriously a late braker.
Our goal with the kit was to provide a brake upgrade for the Solstice/Sky that would work well with the stock rear brakes and provide a nice balance, but while offering a substantial increase in heat capacity and also pedal feel and modulation of the brakes.
The kit uses Wilwood 4 piston fixed calipers with custom in house designed brackets to mount them to the uprights. The rotors are 2 piece with aluminum hats with a custom offset once again designed here, which allow us to use really thick 1.25" rotors on this setup. We also bumped up the diameter to 12.19" which gives a big boost to the thermal capacity of the system and how much it can take. The rotors also have directional vanes to help dissipate the heat from repetitive braking. The setup ships with Hawk HPS pads and they are nice and quiet, no rattles but with much better stopping power than stock. I have been using these on my daily driver 2.0L turbo car now for awhile and abusing them daily and absolutely love them!
The entire front kit is $995 for everything.
