You may remember about 2 months ago I was trying to figure out why my
wilwood brakes were spongy. With ideas from the members I cased it down to
the front calipers flexing. Well this morning I installed new billet 6
piston wilwoods and the sponginess is gone. I have not driven the car yet,
waiting for new rear pads, but the pedal is solid. I have been trying to
solve this problem for 5 years hopefully it is solved. Anyone with spongy
brakes and wildwood superlight II calipers should check this. It is not
cheap but it appears to solve the problem.
