I wouldn't want to anyway. Those are way too rich for my budget.. I could get a whole front set of Wilwood calipers with brackets and floating rotors for far less than Stoptech's regular price. Heck, it's less than Turner's "overstock" sale on the Stoptech's, which were about $1800 last time I checked on sale.

I'd like to contact Massive and see if I could get just calipers and brackets, but I do need front rotors so I probably will just get the kit. We shall see if I could even manage to get $50 for my "Performance" calipers. :facepalm

How much is the massive brakes set? 1499CAD + shipping? thats still probably around $1400?

And you would probably try it out anyways for fun. :) I gave up on trying to mix and match setups since you were having problems with the 135i setup. I was getting to the point where I needed a rebuild so I said fuggit too.

Yeah the price is cheaper in USD. And you are right; I'd try the Stoptech's Kit on your car anyway. If anything, I'd look for a used set if I liked it enough...

You know it. Then again, I'm not always a fan of used brakes unless I know the owner of them. (Peace of Mind IMO.)

Slater,

The shipping is what might kill us since its international.

Good stuff BP.

So, sorry if I'm not reading the other pages... but you're performance calipers are bad again?

Yesterday, after much suffering and head scratching, Charlie and I installed black Stett upper and lower intake boots. The fitment is extremely tight and definitely needs modification to relieve pressure it is putting on my intake pushing against the metal support. At least for now, I'll probably never have to buy replacement boots again! The quality on these is very nice. I will definitely be putting their longevity to the test as I rack on the miles.
