Default 9.5" to 11" brake conversion, where to buy?

I was going to buy fastbrakes 11'' brake upgrade kit for $215 but he no longer sells it.
I do not want to upgrade to integra or civic ex hubs, and I was wondering if anyone knows of any other sites where I can buy a similar kit.
I do not want to buy an AEM kit because I want something that will fit under my GSR rims.
TIA

the kit that uses the stock (dx/si) hubs, he still sells the one for the civic/teg hubs.
He told me that a few people were having probs with the crx calipers rubbing against the kit, so he stopped selling it till he can figure out what is going on.

Can anyone give me a rough estimate of how much it would cost to get EG 10.3'' hubs/rotors/calips?

I just put down the dinero for the whole 11" deal... Worth the $$ though.

My recommendation would be the Civic EX route. Unless you can convince him to sell you the 215$ package? Maybe if you had a spare set of CRX calipers that you said you would use to corrections.

Who knows.

Why don't you want to go with the ex or teg brakes? I didn't see a reason for it, and it's a cheap and effective mod.

I think I am now, but it was only $215 for an 11'' brake kit.
