rad great minds think alike, the nissan 4 pots are the go, is there a pattern for the caliper brackets available? i need to do this along with my 5 stud conversion as i dont have the widey calipers..

You know sitting down with your wallet in your back pants is bad for your back, so you should pull it out and buy those brembos, that way your wallet will be empty and no more back problems :D
Did you have to change the brake master cylinder or do you still have good pedal travel with the stock one?

I went for the Alcons because they were the lightest without spending $4k each. Same for the discs, "only" 28mm thick.
When do you go to QR? I want to get back into it, picking my car up from Redzone on Sunday. The new engine and computer won't be done until the new year, but it's still got enough poke to have fun.
Hopefully now, thanks to Dave, my $$$$$ suspension actually works.......:)
