These are from Wilwood. I work for them so the bracket was designed here at Wilwood. The rears I plan to get in the future but there are other things I want to change out before.

No prices yet the sales guys are still sorting things out. I really can't compare to a standard 6pot since I never tried them out but these feel awsome.

Oic... I'm actually looking to replace my Akebono's with something a little more track worthy. They look gorgeous.

Nice, yes.

And yes I've been building the W6A set up for a couple of years now- check with Carl or Daryl. You might get them to consider offering it as a factory design. Would save me some time and money! lol
