It's been a great kit. I didn't change the M/C or proportioning valve or even need to add a residual valve.

Yes on the rear kit we drilled out the back side of the drum to keep the P/B and just added a bracket to the housing end.

The front was a complete change but still very easy to install. The calipers are 6061 billet aluminum. They are full floating like a stock caliper so you can't feel run-out like you would on a fixed drag racing caliper. Which is much better for street use anyways. The brakes are so large I doubt you would warp a rotor anyways.

Cost for front and rear: 3,000.00

WOW! They even cost more than my wheels! And that isn't easy when you are running these

Nice wheels..........

I was going to use a set of Volks for this new build but Got such a good deal on a set of 5Zigen wheels I couldn't pass it up.

I just attached a pic of the wheel from Wheels Next. it's that exact color in 18". I haven't even been home to see them. Which goes for the other thousands in parts I haven't seen either.
