The good news on this "group deal" is that there's really no end date. Once we get 10, we will go.. but ONLY when we get 10.

Great!

Remember all, this will last for as long as we get 10+. Also remember that you will unlikely see a price like this again, even for the next group deal.

IT'S A GREAT PRICE!

Come on guys...

A SKYLINE 11.6" rotor/caliper kit (which still needs machining) is almost $1200...

Bigger rotors, lighter calipers, CHEAPER.. "Who can ask for anything more?" (Sorry to borrow an old competitors ad... LOL!)

I'm figure once the 10 (or more) get their (ours) the rest of you will be stuck with a higher price or the $1800 Stillen kit... ($800-1000 more).

Don't be wishy-washy... DO IT! DO IT NOW! (name that movie that line is from!)

Re: IT'S A GREAT PRICE!

Will fastbrakes will continue to sell kits, but at a higher price, probably $1000 or so. Brian lowered the price a lot this time to try and get some kits out there...

For the guys that care more about looks, pay a little->

more money and get the Wilwood Billet Superlites calipers. They are made of aluminum. They are lighter and better looking. Maybe Shing can help you look into that more. The diminsion of the regular superlite and the billet version are the same. The price difference is probably not that much more. If I didn't already have the Stillen kit, I would be all over this group deal =) Great job Shing.

Way ahead of you ... That was one of two questions I asked SHING at the beginning... Billets shouldn't cost too much more... I believe JEGS sells both, about $20 per caliper difference with the Superlite II listed. Shing said he would look into it for us.
