Default Fast Brakes question?

Since I'm upgrading to Integra MC and Booster tomorrow I'm thinking about getting some larger front brakes. I think fast brakes kit is the best way to go for me since EX knuckles are a rare find and I never see any EXs in the junkyard. I was looking at their site and I wanted to find the cheapest option. Do they make a kit that uses my DX/Si calipers? Or do they all require new calipers? Also is there a kit without slotted/drilled rotors because I rather save some money and just use Brembo blanks. I should probably e-mail them and ask but I know a bunch of people here that use this kit so I figured I would ask them.

I'm assuming you have 9.5" discs. I just bought fastbrakes 11" rotor kit of the classifieds for $300 with pads and calipers. Not too bad considering the kit goes for $354 without pads or calipers. They should fit under most 15" wheels. It allows you to use integra calipers with the rotors. I haven't installed them yet so I can't say how much of a difference they make. I also have a 15/16" mc I'm putting in. I know they make a 10.25" rotor 4-piston caliper set. I believe they will fit under a 14" wheel. but it costs $725. There was someone on here selling an 11" rotor setup recently. Check the classifieds. The cheapest option would be used in the classifieds. Next would be the 11" rotor setup with used calipers.

Can you buy just the bracket? If I had the bracket and got Corrado rotors and some Integra calipers would that be all I need. I used to see a cheap option there of just the brackets and basic stuff but I never saw it this time.
