Big brakes installed!! Pics

I installed my Wilwood 14" 6 piston kit last night. Install was very easy and I highly recommend the kit.

Install was VERY EASY... The only hard part was I had to pull the hub to remove the dust shield. Other than that it was two bolts to remove the caliper and slide the rotor off. The kit came with stainless lines which took all of five minutes to install. It took me about an hour and 20 minutes from start to finish.
The pedal now has more positive feel to it. When braking around corners I dont have to use as much pedal as before.
