so i just bought ITR calipers.
i currently have the rare 91 ex brakes,(10.2'') which rock. i can mount the ITR calipers and 11 rotors on them (redrilled rotors) that would be amazing, but probably wouldnt fit my 14'' drag slicks (bottlecap wheels)
or, i can sell my fully rebuilt ex setup (new oe bearing, calipers, etc), get some regular ef brakes, mount the ITR calipers on them with 10.2'' rotors. this setup would be great too, and should clear my drag wheels.
should i go all out, or go budget wise? both setups would be great, but the full 11'' rotors would be enough for me to pretty much never cook at the road course.
both setups would involve milling/maching the calipers, etc..i know what needs tobe done. both have been done by other people too, so i know it works.
i'm leaning towards the wild side..and getting new drag slicks.

if you're going to the trouble of milling and machining etc, you might as well get all the bang for your buck. time for bigger wheels/tires
besides 4th gen EX calipers have to be worth something as well

well that comes with the territory right?
those monster 11" rotors should dissipate enough to keep stuff from melting
or if it becomes a problem.....indulge the ricer within and go cross drilled/slotted
