    I know, rotors are held up for stupid reasons on the other end of the country… I have everything else, I'll post pics of the new calipers tomorrow

    Sexy… I still wanna know what those calipers came off of! You said they would be available from a junkyard? Is that still true?

    Not exactly, these are brand new custom calipers based on a brembo design, the major dimensions like width, centerline to mounting offset, mount spacing etc are pretty common among many other brands of calipers… the most notable "compatible" designs as far as availability via junkyard will be from a certain german company based in stuttgart

    Very similar to a few brembo models (which have similar sub-models - but not necessarily the same) New Camaro SS, Rear Srt-8 Charger, 300, Cherokee, etc. Porsche, Evo. Well, I am guessing it is just a re-manufactured brembo part, really!

    UPDATE: I almost fell over when I found out the rotors were dropped off at a local warehouse… damn near everything that can go wrong, went wrong…

    I'll be picking them up tomorrow if all goes well

    Soooo just wanted to add that the non-turbo hubs WON'T have to be machined to use these rotors…
