i cant wait to get these on.
i wont be doing the braided brake lines due to a faulty ebay seller who took my money, i filed a dispute and escalated it to a claim and i will be getting my money back. so i will just save that $130. i was told they wont make much of a difference unless i was autocrossing my car.
also, the brake dust from these brakes is horrible. in 2 days, after washing the car, the wheels are completely covered in brake dust. so new pads will be ordered once these run out.

brakes are all finished.pictures will be up tomorrow after i wash the car in the morning
we ran into alot of problems during the install but after 4 hours, its all done.
studs would not come out because they wouldnt clear the axle bearings. so after taking off the hub, we had to grind down one side almost a 1/4 inch and got all the studs out. after that the new studs went in easy and were reinstalled.
everything bolted right up. then the next problem came up.
the custom spacer i ordered did not fit. the center part that goes around the hub was 1mm or less to small. so we beat it on so it will work. next time when i need to take off my rotors(long time probably), i will have to pry it off and replace it woth a properly machined spacer, or just have the existing ones redone.
but, everything is on and working. took it to 105 and hit them fairly hard and stopped very hard.
car feels great now and has the ability to stop all its speed.

looks good, I personally would be too scared to mount brakes to brackets and everything you had to do to get them to work. They look awesome though, nice work!

i also had to drill the holes to 9/16, but that was easy. the grinding of the hub was the hardest. installing the studs was easy due to a air powered hammer
