Hey, before you guys go spending $1000+ on a Supra TT package, you might want to wait a week or so for my official announcement on a killer Brembo brake package deal...clears the stock 17" GS wheels and it may clear the stock 16's...

Full front kit...you can email me for more details until ...gs430@mac.com

This includes 4 rotors - all parts needed for the job and some instructions. By no means a jip.

not a war at all - just trying to unload a brand new set of high quality parts to one lucky individual.

Yes...DEFINITELY not a war...I didn't think AWJ was actually selling the kit, I thought it was just throwing it out as a option...

His kit is a FULL front and rear upgrade package. Great package for a great price...

What I'm selling will cost more and it's only the fronts but it's a higher performance full Brembo upgrade (similar to their $2995 GT kit...w/o the high price)...not exactly the same deal...

the volks are on a 38 offset, i still needed a 3 mm spacer. W/ the 3 mm spacer i have barley enough room to slide a piece of notecard between the caliper and spoke so i ended up using a 6mm spacer instead.

Is using a spacer to clear your brakes not a good idea? I have the same problem so that's been keeping me away from big brake until I sell my rims for different ones.

Nice wheels and brakes though, See_fu, any pictures of the entire car?

If you use a bad quality spacer you will hate yourself for using spacers

sometimes they will clack and bang around

I run 10mm spacers to clear AP Racing Calipers on my Maxima- no problems and with lengthened H&R studs everything is fine

the spacers are only temporary till i get the H&R stuff. Hopefully this coming tuesday.

I would post pictures of the car, but it ain't a SC. it ain't even a lexus.
