considering your selling in the wrong forum about something that dosen't exist, no one in their right mind would buy from you. Not to mention at 46 post count with no feedback.

Wow, $1400 for a big brake kit with gold calipers that scream "Steal me, I'm Mugen." .... I'll pass.

Semantics.

They use the same RnD, they share blueprints, they work together more closely than anyone else. Just because their payroll is different

yes but when you said:

sounds like you're making them out to be part of the company. which they're not.

so many post's ok i said mugen calipers not rotors but with power slot rotors. im saying i have done all the work and have a hook up i could get them for less then everyone eles sells them for im just trying to see if it will be worth the effort to spend the money up front to have all the machine work done and then sell them. the bracket on integra knuckle is farther out then civic (stock) i could do them for $700-800 or cheper i think i havent worked all the bugs out yet just seeing what everyone thinks bad and good i will post some befor pics of my del sol then after

That's great, you know this section is not for selling parts but for technical questions. You might think i'm being a dick but there are many other ppl who successfully sell parts on this website with out posting it in the wrong section.
