Re: Direct bolt-on calipers

That sounds all well and good, but right off the bat I wouldn't be interested in that, because the JDM calipers would have to come from Japan, and I'm sure they won't be cheap. What I'd be interested in is being able to take calipers off a WRX or something similar, and with minimal effort, bolt them right up to a stock SVX brake system. No bigger rotors, no changing hubs, etc. That, combined with s/s brake lines, should be a "Stage 1" brake upgrade. Simple, not very expensive, and something that won't require special tools or a lot of time.
