I was looking at the amount of space there is from the front fender side vents to the wheels. I think i could probly make a functional front rotor cooler with a little ducting and maybe some fiberglass. Has anyone tried it?

There is a company.....i dont know who it is but makes these vents that you put right in front of the front wheels on the fender well look at.... www.takakaira.com one of the companies this website sells these vents...actually i just looked and its ARC who makes these vents and they are called Vent Masters

You don't really need a kit imo. If you cut a hole (in my case, a piece of blown-out semi tire) in the front of the splash gaurds and the air goes straight through to the rotors. Then again, I have a nice 97 front clip which sports pretty aggressive front vents to begin with so...


:P

It would be kinda cool to have a port through our spash guards like ^ said. Maybe there would be a way to split the air dams on the outside of our foglights so that some of the air would be blown into the engine compartment, and some air into the rotors. It's almost the same concept as the brake cooling systems on Formula 1 cars.

haha i cut off my splash guards in the wheel well..
idk if it makes any difference though :shrug

I know of someone who has a setup to cool his front brakes on his 2nd gen turbo car. (He competes in road racing) I can get more information from him if you would like. Just sned me an e-mail.

i think i had that. my fenderwell trim bolts were mysteriously missing and im assuming it went back and rubbed on my tire :-( and now its all chewed to shit. WHERE CAN I GET THOSE DAMN SCREWS WITH THE PLASTIC COLARS AND THINGS OVER THE THREADS THAT LOOK LIKE THIS?!?

They're just plastic rivets. U can get them @ any parts store or dealership.
