500 is still like insane.

I was hoping for something like 300 bucks.

I don't like taking so long slowing to 60 from 130.

I also need some good rotors.

Go to Discount AutoParts (now Advanced AutoParts I believe) go to the back counter and tell them you need brake calipers for a 1995 Acura Legend GS. These are 2 pistons calipers (pistons are slightly larger than those found in the NSX calipers

) The calipers are around $52 with a $30-$40 core charge. Then pick up a set of bremo blanks (you will need to use a 5mm shim with the brake pads. Pick up some garbage brake pads for the calipers and grind them all the way down so there is no pad left and you will have your shim.) Might as well pick up some stainless brake lines, decent pads and high temp brake fuild.
