Don't know, but why not upgrade the whole thing? Knuckles and all, they're sold for about $150 complete.

I don't know it's hard to get the whole thing for like $150, my friend paid $250 for his and new brake pads another $50, so it comes out pretty expesive. I'm thinking of making a braket so you can use something even bigger.

Check the classifieds section. When I used to get them, I would sell them for $150 complete with pads. I have seen a few other people doing the same.

yeah but still you can have those brakets made for like $50, and just get the calipers with rotors, but as i said I'm thinking about putting some bigger rotors and bigger calipers on.

basically you're trying to do what AEM already did, but with OEM parts.

not everyone has $1000 to spend on a bling big brake kit.

id buy it, but i already have gsr brakes on my si.
good luck.
