Thank you. I now have ordered everything and with shipping it is just over $300. Now I just have to cross my fingers and hope that my 18" Volks will allow the caliper to fit.
I should have added, I haven't done the mod yet, was just comparing your links to the first post and I thought they looked right.
I honestly don't remember what I linked but the ones I linked a page back look right judging by the pictures. The sell said s430 '00 model calipers and they have the larger mounting tabs.
You will also like your brakes better if you replace the 25-30 year old hoses and ensure the caliper slides are lubricated. Finding fairy dust to remove 500 lbs would also help.
Just a little question. If I buy SS brake lines would I just buy the ones for the MA70 and they will fit the calipers?
yes they should, the stock ma70 lines work with the bbk so if the ss lines are a direct drop in it will all line up
Do you want someone to drive to your house and install them for you? Jesus...
edit: Urgh. There isn't any difference between ABS and non ABS brake lines. Search already.

You don't need abs to play linebacker for Alabama. They will take you if you are fat.
Hey, if you're offering I can send you my address SideWinder. It wasn't a question about brake lines, it was a question about the BBK. I read this entire thread and I saw a mention of ABS "sorting out" the distribution of fluid between rear and front.
Anyway thanks for the feedback, guys. Now I know my dreams of playing at Alabama University can come true!

Read all the way through, must have missed this - I was originally planning on getting some hub centric rings for my XXR 535 wheels, but if I have hub centric rings for the rotors can I still run them for the rims as well? Can't find much info on that particular question. Thank you!
I run 15mm spacers on my car and there Toyota bore 60.1. So i had to sand away the small amount of hub centric ring that stuck out past the disk so then the spacer could sit flush on the disk. it was only a couple of milimeters.
for a wheel centric ring you may just be able to slide it on aswell and butt the two against each other

I have rings for the disk then a hub centric spacer and a ring on the spacers hub for my wheel, works perfectly

i didn't change master cylinders and my cars abs everything works great car stops awesome over and over and over yet to make them fade!
one thing though if you are pushing the car like at a track when braking after a long straight make sure to just lightly push the brakes before your braking point. thats the one thing about these compared to stock that you need to keep in mind. the calipers are fixed so you will get slight pad knock back its just part of the deal. my friend crashed his fd at our hill climb cause of pad knock back. i haven't experienced it that bad with these brakes but have hit them hard with out doing that after not having to brake for a while and it didn't stop straight cause the pistons werent in the same spot as each other. once you tap them though then lay into it they brake nice and straight. :biglaugh:
