...Probably only cost me around $500 :x :oops:
but considering everything i have done to the car in the past 6 months, it was worth it (ill just shop around more next time :lol: )

here's what i started out with. you cant see it but the rotors were baddly stress cracked) and everything was a nice shade of RUST :?

Love the GXP wheels.

I would be worrying about that KR if I were you :lol:

Anyways, those brakes look AWESOME, especially with those rims.

Peter, did you find the powerslots in Canada?

Partsource, they will order them ;)

Very good to know!
Thanks

Looks nice Pete...You many want to put some paint on that hub to keep it from rusting up again.

On the how to..I'd like to see more info about the caliper swap. While it's fairly easy..many can have difficulty with it. Especially bleeding and understanding why you have vise grips holding your fluid in the unhooked line. ;)
