you can order the entire ls400 upgrade kit for cheaper than parting it together at silver mine motors
it's selling for $420 right now.

Yes you got a great deal ok, but lets see if that is an everyday price with parts readily available to our members here.
Thank you

Huge improvement! Brakes are perfect! No sponge, no grab. perfect!
Much cheaper than upgrading, but if you got the dough for the upgrade, go for it! I would!
Keep in mind, you might need to upgrade your wheels too! BBK will not fit just any wheels.

so for the ls400 conversion you need
95-00 ls400 calipers (new pads and shim kits ect ect..)
95-00 ls400 rotors (these have the 114.3x5 and fit?)
and if upgrading to SS lines, do you get them for the sc or the ls?

I just happened to pick up a set of LS calipers with barely used pads yesterday at a junk yard for just under $40. YES, UNDER $40.00! That was with the core charge on both - the pricing broke down as follows:
Brake Caliper - $11.99 (each + Sales Tax)
Core Charge - ($2.99 each + Sales Tax).
So my total price was $38.xx!!!!
