  1. yea... just having a hell of a time right now w/ getting vendor to do it "fast". I have one guy testing the kit already w/ WRX line length and it seem sto work, but is not 100% ideal.
  2. The older calipers were side specific but Wilwood now just puts a bleeder screw on both ends so the calipers are interchangeable from side to side. Lines are SS lines that we have custom made. Brackets are required, as is the hardware (spacers, etc). We dont have brackets that make these work for the rear. There is a Wilwood kit for rear WRX that should fit but we are currently testing line fitment on those.
  3. problem is not how hard it is to make. The problem is needing the machine shop to make 50 of them. I would just never be able to recoup that cost unless I charged an absurd amount of $ for the kit. Not to mention you would need special rotors too which adds even more to the cost.
  4. No, too much of a hassle (and cost) to incorporate parking brake.
  5. The Wilwood BP10 or BP20s are a cheap and good pad. More aggressive than the HPS. Not sure why I had 294mm rotor size there. Correcting now. This is a special "reintroducton" price. Regular price is $299 shipped. However, my machine shop goofed on a couple items. As some of you may know who have been following the saga, I was having trouble finding a machine shop to make the brackets again. Turns out the spacers required are also a machine shop item (you cant get the right specs off the shelf). They made them too wide, so they all went back. I have fulfilled the orders that have come through so far and will honor the $249 shipped price for any orders I get. Shipping of anymore kits after today wont be for approximately 2 weeks from today. Then finally, Ill have stock of roughly 50 sets ready to go with lines and all. Thank you guys. The pads are super easy to change on these guys, so like suggested above, just swap to a dedicated track pad if going to track. For that, I really recommend Performance Friction 01s. We have those in stock too.
  6. Actually should have a sample within 10-14 days and then start a production run finally!
  7. Pads from multiple places. Hawk HB521, Carbotech CTW7420
  8. Correct, it is a closed hydraulic system. There is no "pump" that circulates fluid.

  10. Awesome Franz. Just a note, our kit uses heat treated steel brackets. Tested and able to use at the track. Some other kits may use aluminum brackets which might not be up to the task.
  11. There are quite a few on LGT with our Wilwood kit... http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=89776&highlight=wilwood http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=97210&highlight=wilwood http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=111085&highlight=wilwood http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=102549&highlight=wilwood
