Oh SNAP!!!!!

New brakes for the FFR just came in this week..

I think these will be better suited for Mid Ohio than the Fox donors. (that, and I FUCKING HATE DRUM BRAKES)

Things are going really well. I'm mostly settled into the new house. Work is good. Thanks for asking.

Those brakes suck. I suggest you box them up and send them to me so i can dispose of them for you.

Around $2400. (that includes front and rear 2 piece rotors, front and rear calipers and mounting brackets/hardware, porportioning valve, pneumatic ball valve for a parking brake (which isn't strictly DOT legal but fuck that), new dual reservoir master cylinder, new braided lines and other assorted plumbing adapters to make it all bolt in). I'm planning on redoing all the hard lines as well while I've got it down, so I've got a little more to spend yet.

Specs:
Front: 1.25" x 12.90" slotted rotors. Billet Superlite calipers (6 piston)
Rear: .81" x 12.19" rotors. Forged Dynalite calipers (4 piston)

FYI: The front rotors are the same dimensions as 96-05 Mustang CObra rotors but weigh 5lbs less.
