I'm looking for around 550$ for the setup, which is a bargain because the stock 5x114.3 Mugen setup goes for over 1400$, but I'm gonna need these gone very soon.

The mugen setup also includes a specialized AG rotor (the main part of the system), stainless lines and mugen pads on top of the calipers... What is this including? AP1/2 calipers/ autozone brake pads and some redrilled autozone rotors?

Yeah, your mostly paying for that expensive rotor, which I'm not saying is bad, but for most people the difference in temperature will be negligable, because unless your track racing, they wont get hot enough to make use of the inboard mounting style to the hat. Thats why this is going for less, the rotors are standard blanks, but the pads are a ceramic style. The rotors you could call autozone ones if you'd like, blanks are blanks, there is no difference performance wise, unless your talking about the crap, cheap ones that are cast from a cheap metal and have sharp edges and no threaded removal holes. The Mugen setup is a lot more than what I'm selling mine for because I'm including blanks (not the special AG rotor), and the lines I'm including are not stainless. But in all honesty, adding stainless to the front and not to the back is not reccomended. You're nose dive is going to drive you nuts, trust me, I've tested this, hehe.

Which bracket is used, and which rotors? If I had to guess, this setup is basically just an S2000 caliper and redrilled Legend rotor... But then again I usually don't know ****.

I would assume they are S2000/DC5 rotors since they are 11.8" not 11.1".

I have two sets right now. I do not have rear discs.

No Bense, this is not a for sale thread, people were just asking me questions about pricing. If anyone is interested, THIS is the for sale thread for this setup:
