question about these fastbrake kits
This http://www53.ssldomain.com/fas...g1175 kit comes with 4 piston calipers and 11.75" rotors and fits 92-95 civics for $1400
This http://www53.ssldomain.com/fas...F11-4 kit comes with what appears to be the same identical thing except it has 11" rotors. and is $500 less
so are you paying $500 more for .75 more inches? or are they leaving out substantial info? thier site has a basic generic desciription for all thier stuff so I wouldnt be surprised.

Re: question about these fastbrake kits (Boostage)
im interested as well.. why spend the extra bling when you would more than likely only get a nominal gain..

Re: question about these fastbrake kits (Boostage)
but think about the amount of surface area that the extra .75 gives all around the entire brakes. surface area is the most important factor in getting a big brake upgrade, and the .75 might actually make quite a bit of difference. imho, not worth the extra 500 bucks. i would just get good pads, new drilled but NON SLOTTED rotors(will actually wear out pads faster) and good brake fluid.
