Are you using the QuickJack frame extensions? Which model of QuickJacks?

If you have SPC upper control arms make sure you let Chris know because the bracket needs to be modified.

FWIW, I have the Quickjack 5000TL setup and I use the frame extensions for my F15d. The 66" length is just enough to reach the F15 jack points, but I put it up in the air and it was completely stable. Given that the F15 is at the upper limit of the QJ 5000, I always try to ensure when I do maintenance I've got as little fuel as I can to lessen the weight.

Otherwise, no worries putting it up in the air.

Ok, for gt4 rebuild seals you might want to contact brembo directly and see for the part number. Porsche kits available on rockauto

Same as what Jupiter said.
It overhangs a little front and rear. I put a small piece of 2x4 in the extension and then a jack pad. Sits perfect and stable. Done it a dozen times between suspension, brake work, calipers and down pipes.

Excuse the super dirty car/wheels and will be corrected soon once completed and everything bolts up perfect in rear Kris, thank you! All on there now, just have fronts left to bleed but will get that sorted in the morning.

Thanks man, a bit more clean here but will do outside shot once sun it’s out! Cheers, and all credit to people before me including Kris that made such great bolt on and super solid looking/performing system for our cars in rear. Looks hi but will settle as it’s been lifted w jack several times as Dinan rides a bit lower.

Looks like a great kit for the rear....

Are these original, 100% genuine, Brembo calipers?

Yes sir! I've been rocking those brakes on my car for over 2 years now and loving it!

I actually have two kits available if you're interested.

Interesting, I don’t have a F15, but I was asking as you must be able to source the calipers incredibly cheaply to make this work at a sensible price point.

Brembo don’t sell their GT calipers separately outside of their combined brake kits, and also they don’t supply them in a raw unpainted state like I have seen on some of the pics here.

Not knocking the kit, it’s a fantastic looking solution - just interested in the calipers, I am actually looking for some GT4 rear calipers. Perhaps you can help supply only the calipers?
