^^ I have had that exact set up on my car for the past 3 years (red calipers).. The calipers have some scrapes and scratches through the years but everything still works great..

A look through the years:

These are actually the 350z/G35c Brembo Gran Turismo kit, but they worked with my S14. May part these out soon.

Endless 6 piston, in a custom silver alumite coating, but not buffed. I did opt to have the hats polished
