so i know some ppl upgraded front brakes to GS calipers so thsi would through rear brake bias off balance and couse nose dive, so is there anything can be done. im sure there is i just didnt search yet but i think i seen it.
maybe just brakets and bigger rotors for OEM set up without spending a lot on aftermarket bbk set up

i seen that fast brake kit has it but i need something with regular solid brake rotors, no i dont want sloted or dimpled


ok Intrerest list for ppl who want to get Brackets and get rotors themself. if we get at least 5 orders then we can get it for $120 from Paul, plus shipping im sure, Paul correct me if there is mistake. ill ask on v6p as well

1. Me  (paid)
2. Jiraiya_13 (v6p) (paid
3. ADI
4. Mike bluek24a4 (v6p)(paid
5. evo6011



im sure some ppl from v6p would be interested

There are a couple of rear upgrade kits out there, pretty much all of them are relo brackets for the OE caliper with 12.2" Honda Pilot Rotors.......

Hmmmm.  I'd take one too if it were possible to fabricate the brackets.  I just need to do a rear drum to disc swap first.

I believe the kits with rotors are only $250 from both fast brakes and revolution brake, so I really couldn't do it any cheaper.

Sure I can do the brackets and I have seen slot/drill rotors for the pilot of Fleabay. If we can get enough people together I am sure I can knock out a group of brackets with the hardware, I already have the fastbrakes kit on my car that I installed 2 years ago before I got my milling machine.

Probably somewhere betwenn $125-$150 a set with the correct hradware, but to really make this feasable for me time wise I really need to run like 5 sets at a time due to machine setup time per machining operation.
