I did this on my GT/CS.... I had already swapped wheels, so I picked up some takeoff rotors and calipers, and voila!

So you just put on the take off rotors calipers and lines? No problems?

What size wheels are you running?

As far as brake conversion, correct. The stock GT pads are different than the Brembo pads, and your stock 18" or 19" GT or GT/CS wheel will NOT clear the calipers. I have heard of people using wheel spaces to use certain stock wheels, but I do not recommend the use of any spacer, especially on the front of the car.

Look at the FordRacingParts.com website and look up M-2300-S for a full list of Ford Racing wheels that clear the 14" Brembo calipers. There are many aftermarket wheels that work, you just need to specify a 2011+ GT with Brembo brakes to locate fitments online if searching by vehicle.
