I think the front 4 piston stoptechs should clear, I'm running R disk fronts - I really want to save up for a set of those fronts, looks nasty! ...in a good way haha.

PS Wish you were closer I'd ask to see if we could test fit my rear wheels on your car ad see if it would clear?
There's a guy in Houston that is about to part out his car. He's selling his 4-Pot fronts. You might wanna contact him. His screen name is "AroundmyHorn", or something similar. He has a thread in the Texas region. It's under the general section, not the for sale section.

BTW, the Stop Tech website has a sillouette(sp?) you can down load and print. You cut it out and paste it to a piece of cardboard. Then use it to stick inside you rim to check for clearance. This is what I did.

Will do. I'm a "classified" rat. I usually check twice a day. I already have a mental note of what I want, so when I see an add containing it, I'll buy the part spontaneously...

Sounds good. I'm a classified junkie too, but only to see who's trying to give me competition

nice install!

i ended up poppin' off the pressed-in rear dust shield with a chisle, seperated it from the attachment at the hub and cut it off completely.

i hope you like not using the Ebrake if u ever want to drift! hehe.

Yeah I know, I read about that portion. It's cool though. I don't plan on doing any drifting anytime in the future. My luck, I'd end up wrecking and totalling out the vehicle...

The hand brake still works to hold you car in a sitting or inclined/declined postion, but Stop Tech adds a disclaimer that the drum will not hold up to hand braking abuse when performing stunts or drifting. I believe it might just be one of those CYA dissclaimers, but what do I really know. I wouldn't know the first thing about drifting other than what I seen on F&F3..

The reason the parking brake should not be used for drifitng with our rear kit is the change to aluminum hats instead of the factory iron. Aluminim is fine for keeping the car stationary or a rare emergency stop, but it wont hold up to regular use while the car is moving.
