Finally fit the 13 inchers

Took me a while but I got 13 inch wheels to fit on my car....

j/k.... I finally got the brackets made to fit 13" rotors onto a modified FASTBRAKES kit... Well, the only part that remains is the hats... LOL.

the problem with getting a big break kit is your car will stop but the jerk driveing a lincoln towncar behind will not. and what do u have? an accident. i was going to get a big brake kit from tirerack but decided not becasue of what happen to my friend. (above situation) he had an rx-7 by the way.

then it would be the lincoln drivers fault and have him pay rather than you plowing into the guy infront of you

and then you paying..

being able to stop faster and more reliably is NEVER bad. doesnt mean you have to be stopping so fast people behind you burst in flames or something.. just nice to have it there when you need it. nice that you guys get 11 inch brakes stock, the biggest brakes ever made for my car (which i have) are 11 inches all around.

good brakes= best mod ever. being able to stop means my car survives long enough to get modded.

those rotors up there look badass, but that tiny caliper is just silly. hehe.
