Default my front brake setup and wheels!!! (56k friendly)

didn't know exactly where to post, so to get the least amout of flaming i will put it here, just a teaser of whats going on the front of my black '94 EJ1 daily driver.

this pic includes: Stoptech slotted rotors, reman'd gsr calipers (painted black), axxis metal master pads, and Stoptech stainless brakes lines. the rear setup will prolly have something simalar (sp?) to the front when i can afford it



and the sexy *** rota slipstreams in Sport Bronze 15x6.5 (haven't decided on rubber yet so suggestion are welcome)



please enjoy!

$65.00 + shipping Axxis Metal Masters : http://www.buybrakes.com/store/108-06210

$83.00 Stoptech brake lines : front: http://www.buybrakes.com/store/85-054-4500-F (must be purchased separetly front/rear)

$152.00 + shipping (for a pair) Stoptech Slotted rotors : http://www.kingmotorsports.com...tegra

GSR calipers cost about $175/per caliper, i bought them from a local acura dealer, they were so expensive beacuse they charged a core charge, but i didn't have old integra calipers to give back to them, and i'm still kinda using the civic ones until i put the sh$t on

car it is all going on is a 1994 civic ex coupe black (stock look w/ mild drop )

cost on everything is about $600-650
wheels were $450 shipped

Lookin good, but daaamn 350$ for 2 reman'd calipers (i know it includes the core fee)! You could have probably bought a set off someone from HT for 50-75$ or so, then bought a rebuild kit for close to nothing and done it yourself.

i thought about going that route, believe me i said DAAAAMN to when i got the quote from the acura dealership, but to have them already rebuilt by someone who does all day long is worth it to me so i don't have to d%ck with it, and possibly screw something up
