Didn't realize you did front and rears, how bad were the rears to swap?

Rears were a pain. Had to build a bracket for them. Wasn't able to integrate the stock ebrake with them ether so I have an aftermarket ebrake setup i still need to put on them.
They look amazing but we will see if it was worth it after a few track events.
One of these days I'll get around to doing a write up on everything.

Yeah brakes are the one area I skipped when I did my build. So now I want to touch that area up a bit. 620 HP with stock brakes just seems backwards

Looks great. I would of done the rears as well, but I want to be able to use 15" wheels for slicks still.

Pull that custom rear brake bracket off... duplicate it and sell it. Could make some $$.

What rotors did you use for the rear? Also, what brand of rotors are pictured for the front? They look good. Any tips on the bracket? I'm going to be doing mine soon
