BBK With OEM Calipers

Okay, I have searched and searched and have never been able to come up with an answer:

I am wondering if anyone makes a front BBK kit that has the ability to use the OEM caliper with a bigger rotor. I want to fill out the wheels a bit more and the additional surface area will obviously help with braking temps.

Let me know your thoughts.

why not upgrade to a 99 spec brakes, they are larger diameter and wider in the front. for the rear you just need a new caliper bracket and rotors that came on the 99.

Roger Mandeville used to make a kit that widened the stock FD caliper and used a larger rotor. It was a nice setup. Ronin Speedworks is supposedly remaking that kit, at least thats what their site has said for a couple years now.

That looks like it is just for the rear, I was looking for something for the front too.

For the price of the 99 spec brake parts you might as well go with a real BBK.
