So what is the story with this? How did you find these calipers? What are the piston specs? Where did you get the caliper adapters?

Also, it looks like you had to clearance the OEM caliper mounting ears a little bit, any other massaging that goes with this swap?

Did you machine the adaptors or out source them ? Pad part number for the thicker type used?

You have to be joking to think Tony would get some body to make them.:rolleyes:
Probably milled them up after dinner.:)

That would be great. Think the 4-pots would fit under 17" wheels? From pics they look like they'd even fit under the stockers. Those look great and I think for the price they should be a great upgrade.
