No, I'd rather spend $1000+ more on the same package with a pretty Brembo Box.

Big Brake Package for the LS...
Hey guys...just wanted to guage interested in a REAL big brake package for the LS...
Here is what's included...
4 piston Brembo caliper, 13" rotor Cross Drilled/Slotted (both or either) CAD Plated, steel braided lines (Goodridge most likely), street compound pads (and with this particular caliper, you will have a LOT of choices in terms of pads after these wear down...you won't be stuck with only one or two pad choices!), custom CNC'd bracket.
Now the price will be determined by what we can secure the calipers for but we're looking to do it for less than $1800...
So now the question is, how many of you LS guys would actually fork out that kind of money for basically the same package as the $2995 Brembo Package?
The reason why I posted this here is because I know the GS guys are game...they are always looking for a good deal on a big brake package...Now I am going to do this setup and offer it for the SC (because I have one)...but I also wanted to offer it to the LS guys. We have a full LS400 spindle to check the bracket (to make sure it fits) so we are serious about doing this....
However, I need to know if you guys are even willing to actually buy this kit...

Hey mike, my front rims are going to be mid-disk rite? will they have enough room for clearance? If they will fit I might be interested, I just dont know how well the 1st gen LS400 stock brakes will hold up with 20's. Let know about a price as soon as you can.
thanks
thanks

Eric - I would have to test out your setup...I can't say for sure right now because we are still working on the bracket so I don't know exactly where the caliper will sit...
