    yeah thats a good idea reelax, might have to think about that option also. Thanks ivory yeah lucky it wasn't to big of a mix up, like them sending me wrong rotors or something. I'll call them tomorrow to get the pads exchanged and pop them in.

    Next step is, exhaust upgrade hopefully find some deals by xmas

    those lines that they shipped to him were the rear drum lines since both ends are females rather than one end male and the other female

    great job man it looks great...ever think about doing the evo caliper upgrade?

    i was going to do the evo caliper & rotors swap, but my wheels wont clear them. So i decided not to go that route, lol im not ditching my wheels since i paid nearly 3K for them. The cars a daily driver, so im happy with this setup much better braking then drums & single piston caliper for sure.

    Nice, did you weight the rear drum parts to see the difference and any possible weight reduction? And be careful about your factory spare, it won't clear the dual piston caliper, you will either need a full size wheel, or a mini-spare from a dual piston 8G Galant.

    Good, glad you already knew about it. Too bad you don't have the drum setup, I don't think it weighs that much different though, but it would be interesting nonetheless.
