That's badass! Is there a rear kit? Oh and do the calipers still have the Porsche logo on them, or do you remove it? <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />

I've had this kit on vehicles before. You need to determine if your master cylinder will have enough hydraulic advantage over the volume of these calipers or it is conceivable that your braking ability may go down. Check to make sure that your master has the displacement recommended by Brembo.

These are maybe the best street calipers in the world but you must have the hydraulic leverage to use them or the advantage is lost.
