    Since I already have disc brakes I wanted to do the 2 piston conversion from the older GTs. Might help with the weak braking. Or I might as well look for a 4 piston system that fits in a 16 inch wheel...good luck to me.

    not to rain on anyone's parade, but please read this article when you consider 500 dollars on a brake upgrade.

    For some - it's simply a visual issue. Sure AEM or whoever makes nifty shiny thinkgs to cover your drums, 4 wheel disc look better
