Brembo Introduces New Website And App For The North American Aftermarket

Brembo has announced the launch of its new dedicated aftermarket website and its first app for the North American aftermarket - the Brembo Parts catalog app.

Brembo has announced the launch of its new dedicated aftermarket website and its first app for the North American aftermarket ­– the Brembo Parts catalog app.

The new website www.BremboParts.com is an online resource where distributors, dealers, mechanics and Brembo enthusiasts can find from technical information about Brembo products including updated data from the online catalog, fitting instructions for rotors and pads and technical drawings and assembly information. Additional featured content includes tutorials taken from the Brake System Academy DVD, manuals dedicated to the products and marketing literature and other relevant downloads.

According to Brembo, the new app offers users intuitive navigation and vibrant graphics. Downloadable free from Apple’s app store, the app includes a complete Brembo aftermarket catalog for North America, as well as Europe, where the product categories “Rotors-Drums” and “Pads-Shoes” are displayed along with an “Info” tab that identifies Brembo’s North American distributors.

The main feature of the new Brembo Parts app is the ability to search for detailed technical information for all of the part numbers available in the catalog. Within a product category (i.e. Rotors-Drums), searches can be conducted by entering the model (Make, Year, Model) or Brembo part number (Code) and tapping “Search.” The App will immediately display all of the available part numbers, descriptions and part types associated with the various models of the vehicle. Additional descriptions, specifications, interchangeable part numbers and schematic drawings are also easily accessible directly from the app.

The app is currently available for iPhones/iPads. The application for Android devices will be available by December 2013.

A video tutorial that shows the main features of the app is available at BremboTube, the YouTube channel dedicated to Brembo.

Toyota’s original Land Cruiser was the company’s version of a Jeep that could go anywhere. In its time it was highly rated and collected, which led the Japanese juggernaut to bring back an updated SUV in 2007 called the FJ Cruiser. The retro-styled vehicle was again a go anywhere machine powered by a 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE) used in the Tacoma. The engines are durable and considered relatively robust for the time.

Diagnosing Intelligent Cooling Systems

The majority of cooling systems on the roads react to what is happening inside the combustion chamber. After the engine is stressed, the heat causes the thermostat to open. Increases in temperatures will also cause the cooling fans to come on. The heat carried by the coolant is the trigger for operation of the fans and thermostat.

Modern Cooling System Design: It’s Not About Temperature; It’s About Powertrain

Given the advanced state of internal combustion engine technology, some recent cooling system innovations will actually increase engine torque and fuel economy while reducing exhaust emissions. Let me simplify that idea: new cooling system technology will make engines run better and cleaner. So, let’s get on the same page by reviewing some basics.
