They won't get too expensive, the seller didn't put JDM in the title

so what is the best caliper conversion for our cars? and how much would such a conversion run? is it really worth it, or would i see better performance from a stock rotor and pad upgrade, like to some hawk pads and power slot rotors?

so basically some accord V6 rotors and legend calipers are the way to go if i want to do a caliper conversion? about how much am i looking to pay for something like this. would i be able to do it myself, or will i need to take it to a shop for something like this? and you can only convert the front brakes?

could someone please email me with more info on this, i think i'm getting a little confused with the info. i'd really appreciate it if someone would be patient enough to really explain my options on this. please email at AccordVTEC95@aol.com thanks

I'd pay $400 for them, had I the money.
Super duper brakes like these Brembos cost $2395
