my buddy just bought these for his 3rd gen sho. IIRC, about $900 for the front and he had to custom adapt some for the rear which were about the same price, or near it. if i had money to burn, id definitely get them. they look awesome and im sure work incredibly. lucky bastids who're gettin em!

in my buddy's case, the kit was SO big that the first time he drove it the caliper lopped off the valve stem. luckily, they make uber-low-profile valve stems, just took a few days to them. he has 17z on his car and they baaaaarely cleared the rotors. it looks like their rubbing on his wheels.
it's funny too cuz there is about 1/4 of space between the edge of his rotors and the wheels rim. from the outside, they almost look like those big fakie brake dust cover thingies.

With 17's, 1/4" spacer and new RX7 wheel studs they fit just fine...

This front brake set is normally up around $1000 with the cad plated, cross drilled & slotted rotors option.

do your rear rotors look tiny? or did you bump them up too?

Alright forgot to mention, though it is in the product description I believe, the rotors included with this kit are Zinc Plated, cross-drilled and slotted. This is the best deal you'll find anywhere for this setup, period.

rears don't look too bad but if they made a bigger kit for the rear I'd be all over it. I don't have any pic's of the rear since there's nothing special going on there...yet

Scott, where did you pick those up at? Jim(BeyondloadedSE) was looking everywhere for these studs, as he purchased some custom made spacers from a guy on Ebay.. He couldn't find any lengthened studs so is going to buy the H&R package that comes with spacers and studs.. This might help if he knows where to get them..

Thanks!

Welcome to the world of modifications! You're obviously either in High School and $700.00 is a year's salary, or you just gained access to the real world and found out how much car mods really do cost..
