Re: Lsvx-t

I got to mock up one side today. Someone at wilwood fudged the parts catalog for the wrx 13 and 14" kits. It is supposed to use the same radial mount for both kits just utilize a spacer for the 14" rotors. Obviously this is not true. The 13" kit will use different mounts. So that means I did some "make this **** fit" modification and voila! I have cut down the studs in the pictures so they don't stick out so far. I will need to make up some shims for on top of the caliper mounts as I used lock washers for mock up. It fits and fits well! So now you have an off the shelf big brake kit for the fronts. It requires a little shaving with a sanding wheel and some new paint but otherwise pretty simple. Hope others can use this info
