Haha im gonna try to get them on tonight. My body guy is taking forever so I asked if I could come down and start swapping the brakes tonight. And will do!
Well, I ended up getting one of the four brakes done. I lost my lug key and had to buy a whole new set of lugs just for the key. I did the ARP 3" wheel studs and the caliper/rotor/stainless line..all in all it was pretty straight forward. My rims are RPF1 18x9.5 with a +18 offset (+38 with a 20mm spacer) and they fit perfect with absolutely no room to play. The top of the caliper has >1mm clearance but the face has more than the brembo. Im gonna finish them up tomorrow hopefully.
For some reason the calipers look the same size but they arent even close.
The new brakes definitely fill up the wheels nicely. What made you get the cross-drilled rotors over blanks, dimpled, or slotted? Oh, and what pads are you using?

If you notice in the pics I managed to put both fronts and backs on the wrong side(notice the bleeders on the bottom)..dumbass. But I fixed and bled. I went with drilled because out of all the brakes ive tried they work the best for hard (very)high MPH stops.
He got it a few weeks ago. So far I tuned it and put a CAI on it...the car is absolutely ridiculous for a stock car. And yeah man, im always free so let me know when you wanna do something.
