Another great vid Jack. LP wired for sound and reflecting on his common sense approach to getting the job done. Let's beat them all by not stopping for a pad change . Genius.
Awesome content keep them coming. I have a technical question regarding the anodising of the caliper casting. Do you ever get any aluminium oxide (white powder) after anodising? Cheers
That's the direction they are designed for, hot air disappears out the top of the rotor, cooler air comes through the centre, more exaggerated with brake ducting
.. nice work again JP! Am curious about the rotors.. from drilled to slotted to J-Hook thru the generations anyone of them better than the other? and better/worse pad wear?
Hi Jack, Pad material, do you venture into ceramics? If so how do you find the ceramic pads, good, bad or indifferent? Cheers Great vids. Greatest respect for the more mature master, had a great influence in what I stand for as an Engineer, On Ya Larry.
Jack your doing a great job with all the details of the models. There's really not that much of a difference between the models. Awesome content. 💯🇦🇺🤟😎
There's possible more strength in the Radial mount, and some scope for more adjustment. Radial mounting with dog bones also opens up scope for more options with calipers as they don't always share the same mounting holes. Dog bones can be made to suit just about any application
AP has also moved to ventilated pistons and I guessing something more exotic material wise. Interested to see how/if the vane count and mass of the rotorsfor Bathurst have changed through the years as the diameters have changed.
They have changed a lot in the front, 48 vein was standard, then 72, then when Alcon came alogn with a control rotor in about 2007 they went back to something in the 30's or 40's but massive vibrations came in and the ended up back in the 70's...
So there's nothing really locating the pads apart from how it sits in the caliper?? On a road going brembo et al caliper youd have pins going through the pads to stop them floating around and potentially going bye bye out the top.
Let's play Automation Solution game next time! Hide this little robotic arm somewhere, and we look for it on video 😁 again, nice episode, and great evolution of calipers, especially the back ones 👌 a lot of people don't pay attention to rear, just because they do only 20-30% braking, how little they know!
Giday Jack, So the 95 car with the Endless brakes, was that fronts only? Maybe I got my years mixed up, but I remember one time on tv LP telling the story about them. How the heck did they work? 1000k on no pad or rotor change, must have been made of some good stuff?

Great vid Jack. Dont stop.
Cheers!
Thank you. I imagine that the AP kit also has a ‘nice’ price. Looking forward to the Automation Solutions video.
Cheers
Love the car covers as well Jack Awesome ..
Cheers!
Love it.
Cheers!
Another great video jack 🤙
Cheers!
Another great episode. Thanks as always.
Glad you enjoyed it, cheers!
Great information as per normal thanks Jack
Cheers Kevin
Well done jack thanks for all the effort you put in , it’s great you show these cars and there not just locked 🔒 away in a private collection
Cheers Brandon!
Any chance on doing something about cages? The Structure benefits you can get, Safety. The Larry bar, where did that idea come from?
Top job
Interesting
As usual, super Cool.
great video Jack cheers
Cheers Craig!
Jack once again a great episode, you explain things so I understand it. Great as usual. Great channel.
Awesome content keep them coming. I have a technical question regarding the anodising of the caliper casting. Do you ever get any aluminium oxide (white powder) after anodising? Cheers
Sometimes, but not always. If they are sprayed with like a WD40 or DWF type spray then normally they stay pretty good
Thanks Jack, interesting as always 👍🏻🇦🇺
Cheers David!
Great show Jack, very informative and interesting
Cheers John
Why do you have the fins in the disc rotors facing rearwards at the top (where ground speed is highest)?
That's the direction they are designed for, hot air disappears out the top of the rotor, cooler air comes through the centre, more exaggerated with brake ducting
Love your work 👍
Cheers!
Are you able to do a video on exhaust system design between the cars??
Need a few more props, they’re all in the cars, makes it a bit hard to film
@@perkinsengineering Thanks mate. Even a view from under the hoist would be awesome.
@@ItalianStallionLouie what hoist 😂
@@perkinsengineering you can borrow mine. 🤣
.. nice work again JP!
Am curious about the rotors.. from drilled to slotted to J-Hook thru the generations
anyone of them better than the other? and better/worse pad wear?
Another great video. Would still love to see LP's wet sump set up
Yeah the only one we have is on the engine! Might be some drawings around...
Another top video great content Jack top job buddy
Glad you enjoyed it, Cheers!
Jack thank you for the content- your presentation and technical description is unsurpassed - Regards
Cheers David
Nice vid, leads to a vid on rotor design as there were several types there..
Yeah there was a fair evolution there, unfortunately we don't have enough props lying around to make a good enough visual!

Yeah this is one area that hasnt seen massive evolution
@@perkinsengineering Jack when you have it right why play with it. 💯🇦🇺
Nice video, does the COTF and the 2003 take the same pads and any chance you have a set of calipers for sale either 2003 or COTF type?
Is there any difference in structural strength between evolutional mounting points? Another great vid. Thanks Jack.👍👍🇭🇲
The radial mounting also has the advantage that the alignment shims would be fixed and not come out with the bolts like the early style.
There's possible more strength in the Radial mount, and some scope for more adjustment. Radial mounting with dog bones also opens up scope for more options with calipers as they don't always share the same mounting holes. Dog bones can be made to suit just about any application

Yeah that's correct, the calipers have been designed for the correct size pad, once in there and the back bridge is closed they cant go anywhere

Haha the arm has been in most videos from this series!!! We will get to see the real life one soon!
Giday Jack,
So the 95 car with the Endless brakes, was that fronts only? Maybe I got my years mixed up, but I remember one time on tv LP telling the story about them.
How the heck did they work? 1000k on no pad or rotor change, must have been made of some good stuff?
The last video covered this
We did cover this in the previous ep, #34, the material is "normal" just a thicker brake pad
So smart that little bridge work ,been waiting for the latest, keep up the great work, just wondering did lp get a gong ,or has he got one
Cheers Russel, LP was awarded an OAM 1-2 years ago now
First , yay lol 😆
Well done!
