i was kinda hoping to find something different than a big brake kit. possibly just some slotted rotors and performance calipers, if there are any. i think i read somewhre that the big brake kits need a 16 inch rim for them to fit. i only have a 15 inch.

thanks,
chris

call stainless steel brake company and ask what they have. all the other companies probably have calipers with OEM sized slotted rotors. YOu have to call and ask.

your best bet is to get some slotted rotors and the green brake pads used with stock calipers.
they will wear down faster than stock but not as fast as cross drilled big brake kit.

get some sttel braded brake lines to keep a stiff pedal pressure. Also, you may just want to
find the back disks off a Si and swap those for your drums...good luck
