Default Finally got the big brake kit installed...

I finally got the BBK installed today. It looks great, and there is a huge difference in brake feel. I gotta be easy on them for the break in period, but I can tell they will be nice on the track. I will post pictures tomorrow, its already dark here so I can't take any right now.

Default More pics of the brakes

Cleaned up the car after the install and here are some pictures. I also got a set of matching rear rotors for free with the kit, so there is a pic of those too. I know I need to have my front bumper repainted (sucks to be a daily driver), but I haven't gotten to it yet.....

Man that is the NICEST wheel/ brake combo I have ever seen. The brake seems to take up every last bit of space through the wheel. Just looks like a totally different car since I last saw it. Good taste man!

Thanks, now next time I'm in town I'll just "borrow" your turbo and I will be done.
