Can anyone give me a list of websites that sell rotors, brake pads and calipers for 4cyl Galants? I actually want the brake-setup that the Evo has.


Which rotors do you guys recommend?

i dont know if u know this or not, but youll need abour 4 gs, anyone willing to spend 4 gs on 2 pairs of rotors needs to be shot.

Its rediculous - I checked my local Mitsu stealership, and they wanted ~$1000 for each Evo Brembo caliper (which are a direct bolt-on BTW) http://www.club3g.com/forum/images/smilies/rant2.gif

Anyway, best place to check for used Evo Brembo calipers is to scan the Evo boards like http://evolutionm.net/ ('http://evolutionm.net/')

Other places to look at:

4G's!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Christ!!!! :shock: I'm not looking to spend that much, I just wanted some better calipers. But thanks for the other websites though, I guess I will just stick with my painted ones and AEM rotors instead.

I checked out www.autobarn.com their prices seemed reasonable, but I don't know.


Thanx anyway.

Holy shit! Davin, where the hell have you been? If you want the EVO front brakes, you might have some trouble with the clearance of the calipers and your rims. You'll more than likely need spacers or new rims with a low offset. Xska55, has the EVO front brakes and also the stock EVO Enkei rims to make sure he had the proper clearance. You might just want to look into a big brake kit.

By the way, how has that RIPP SDS been working out for you over the years?

Search the EVO forums, I was about to get EVO brakes for 800 for all 4 corners, including lines and rotors, but I realized that my rims wouldn't clear them so I didn't buy them

DANJ!!!.................David!!!!

What's up big man!! Yeah I was MIA for a while because the site was down for so long I thought it shut down completely. The car is running well no complaints, I actually dropped the car off to get new headers put on and the engine bay cleaned. I have to start taking care of it again. I see your all kitted out these days! Your car looks really nice. We all have to organize a meet, I know the rest of the New Jersey crowd doesn't like to leave the state for meets but I'm up for it. Let me know.

Also thanx for the info about the spacers.
