Big Red brake kit - interest check
After I had my own aluminum hats made for my Big Red kit, I thought about makig my own braket and thus having a full 'kit' of my own. Someone suggested I sell my own kit bnow that i put in the time and $$ to get the aluminum hats made.
This would be the front only and include the following:
- aluminum hats
- custom floating rotors from coleman racing
- floating mounting hardware
- BIG RED 993 turbo calipers
- caliper mounting braket
It would probably not include pads or brake lines.
Cost wold be in the $2000 to $2500 range depending on how many kits are sold in a group buy.
Post here is you would buy the kit if it were available.

I don't see the point when you can get fully engineered brake kits for only $1800 with the caliper pistons sized for the FD.....or any of the number of pre-engineered AP Racing kits for the FD.
No offense, Damian, I just fail to see any advantages to the Big Red kit over the kits mentioned above while there ARE disadvantages....
