Caliper brackets are definately different, you will have to use the FSVT caliper brackets w/ the FSVT calipers.
Are you talking for non SVT's because, again, they bolted right up to Chris' car. And the wheels fit just fine too. And they are filled up quite nicely!

The only "issue" chris mentioned was that he heard the FSVT bolts are longet than the CSVT, so it's a good idea to change them anyway.

Yes, I bolted my E1 wheels over the FSVT caliper and rotor and it fit. I also have my wheels balanced by those little sticky weights on the inside of the dish, not on the face of the wheel. Bill J. did tell me the FSVT caliper bolts are approx. 1/2" longer. Since my caliper bolts are corroding, I order the FSVT bolts.

For the rears, I hope to do it sometime in early September, I've used up my car budget for this month! wink

I will try to get a friend with a digicam to come over during the install to help document the process. It does seem pretty much a straight swap.
I'll Try to get there soon :p

Prices:
DSC-FRT: 95.00 (list) 71.25 (sell)
BRAKE AS: 130.09 (list) 97.56 (sell)
CORE CHG: 70.00 (list) 70.00 (sell)

Now, I have purchased many, many items from Bill (both bumpers, full set of wheels, maintenance items, hard to get bearings, etc...) so these prices that he gets me may be better than other people's prices. Hell, other people may be getting better prices than me! So, YMMV...

Oh yeah, this is per side.
