Re: Brake Cooling - On the verge of Fabrication
I believe the '00 R brake cooling equipment was really expensive and wasn't all that elborate. Seems like I remembe a discussion on the Mafia board where someone said they could make the same thing for like $30 and it costs $250 to buy the R kit.

Re: Brake Cooling - On the verge of Fabrication
No brake duct is very elaborate, it is a simple duct that fits around the spindle and guides air into the center of the rotor.
The nice thing about the 00r's is that it was carbon fiber, and a bolt on piece. Real nice ducts have fan that blow air into the tubes, and water spayers also.

A) you were using your brakes to much B) How do you know they were to hot. Did you see them glow? That brake system is designed to perform when hot. If you drive Brian's or my car with the Baer equipped pads, you will see that they do not brake that well until hot and when they hit premium temperature, those mothers really stop.
