Then imagine an SVT rotor and add an inch to it.

Nine pages of info on this.
By now don't you think if it were that easy to do that it would be done? I never say never, but I'd be all over it if it were a simple project.

Id the rpice on the mods page correct for the FSVT calipers? After the core they come to about 98 a piece? So there is like a what, 70 core charge? They list on parts counter express for like 167 or so?

Hey, is this thread still active?
I haven't done this yet... but as soon as the weather clears here in Detroit, I will be adding FSVT rotors with an FSVT bracket to the existing CSVT caliper. If I'm not mistaken, it should bolt right up with 3mm spacers.
Am I missing something?

OK, maybe I missed it or am just dense, either is possible, but has anyone said if the FSVT Rotor, caliper, and braket will bolt up to the Contour knuckle? I'm not thinking of price or anything, just if a direct, complete swap over will work.

According to what I have read & the discussion I had with Bill Jenkins last week, all you will need other than the above is 3mm hardened washers/spacers that will center the caliper & bracket over the rotor.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
