Girodisc caliper studs are a direct replacement for the OEM caliper bolts.
A must-have item for those who track or race their cars often. The factory bolts will quickly strip out the threads in the expensive wheel uprights, from removing the calipers for maintenance. These Cup-style caliper studs will eliminate this problem and quickly pay for themselves. They also allow for quicker and easier caliper installation by guiding the calipers into position. Manufactured from aerospace quality 17-4 PH stainless steel for high strength and corrosion resistance. One kit includes 4 studs, nuts, and washers, complete for one axle. Two kits are required for the front and rear.
These Brake caliper stud kits now include the highest quality available, ARP 12-point nuts. This is a no-compromise solution. Made from high-strength stainless steel, these nuts will not corrode, have a 180,000 PSI tensile strength, and are compact in size for a better fit in the brake caliper bore.
Please Note
If you are not familiar with, or confident that you understand how to replace the caliper bolts with studs please have a certified mechanic perform the installation.

The problem of brake fluid boiling is simply traced to heat transferring from the rotors and pads directly into the fluid through the caliper pistons. When brake fluid boils, it releases air that is normally part of the molecular structure of the fluid. This air is compressible of course, and the brake pedal goes to the floor instead of moving the caliper pistons. Production cars tend to suffer from this on track days more as they don't usually have the extensive cooling duct and exotic brake materials as true racing cars. True racing only brake calipers generally come with titanium caliper pistons for one reason. Titanium as a material has low thermal conductivity. This means that it is very bad at transferring heat, which is fantastic if you are trying to keep your fluid cool.
The Girodisc solution to help prevent fluid boiling is to use a thin titanium shim placed between the pad back and the pistons, to keep the braking heat from transferring into the pistons and fluid. Here is a comparison of materials and their relative thermal conductivity ratings:
Titanium 6AL-4V 6.7 W/mk
Steel 52 W/mk
Aluminum 130 W/mk
You can see that Titanium will transfer far less heat than steel and especially aluminum. For cars that are going to see hard or multiple track days, these shims are cheap protection from losing the pedal due to boiling at the wrong time and making the day very expensive.
Water jet cut to exact size, no cutting, grinding, or swearing involved.
Price is per axle (four pieces)
