I think MOST people can only afford the 12.5" rotors and XG calipers. They may WANT the Willwoods/Brembos/etc. but when it comes time to pay, I'm sure there won't be that many.
The XG calipers look nice and are more than enough as far as stopping power, so why waste the money going with something else? For the "name"?

Madjohn, thanks for reminding me of the 12" option. We also have a 12" 2-piece rotor that will fit 16" wheels. I also have the pricing for a possible group buy on the brake kits.

Here's a tentative price break down:

12" 2 piece rotors w/XG calipers and performance pads - $750 shipped

12.6" 2 piece rotors w/XG calipers&brackets and performance pads - $850 shipped

12.6" 2 piece rotors w/Brembo F40 calipers&brackets, performance pads, SS brakelines - $2000 shipped
Similar Brembo setups go for $2500+
Brembo F40 specs

If you prefer, you also have the option of using other approved aftermarket calipers such as the 4 piston Wilwood Dynalite. The 12.6" rotors with a customized lightweight aluminum bracket will go for - $600 shipped

If there are other calipers you have in mind, send me the caliper schematic and we'll see if it will work.

If these prices seem high, it's because shipping from Korea is substantial since these are fairly heavy items.

I think we'd be interested in just the rotors since we could get the calipers here in the US.
And aren't you importing the aftermarket calipers from the US and then sending them back to us?

When I saw the pricing of the BBK for the front I was alittle suprised, but if the rotors and the calipers later would be alittle more interesting.

Rotors(pair) by themselves will be $550 shipped - both 12" and 12.6"

The rotors are 1.1" thick and can take a LOT of abuse. The rotors won't warp because they're 2 piece and they won't crack since they are slotted as opposed to drilled. They are Brembo quality in every aspect and designed for heavy duty braking.

The XG calipers are relatively difficult to buy in the states since there are only a few dealers and I think there was very little US production of the XG. There are 2 versions of the XG calipers and you'll have to make sure you get the correct one. By all means, if you can get it for less in the states, go for it. I'm just trying to help the community out.

To import calipers to Korea and send them back would be ridiculous. The idea is for me to supply a pre-made bracket to specific calipers that you could buy in the states. This way all you'd have to do is plug and play the calipers.

You will have to switch to non-captive rotors first
