New Brake setup/ 5 lug conversion questions?
Soemtime in the near future i want to invest in a good brake setup like a 4 piston front caliper and a decent set for the rear and while i'm at it i want to go ahead and get a 5 lug.
What is a good brake kit to invest in?
What else do i have to buy (aside from wheels) to get the brakes working?
Thank you

It really depends on how much you want to spend...
I went with the baer 5 lug sport package front and rear. So much better.. better than my 02 subaru too
If you go 5 lug you need:
new carrier
axles
master cylinder
proportioning valve
new frong spindles (i went 95 gt...better geometry)
stock brake booster is ok (unless you want a softer pedal)
3-2 brake line conversion
wheel studs front and rear 1-1/2"
more lugs...
now that doesnt include the rotors, calipers, brake lines
i think thats it, i cant remember
If you want the junkyard way. i think there is a sticky on it....explains all

it certainly does run you up some....but mine was all brand new parts. the used, junkyard route is by far cheaper. But i have the calipers in my sig on my car... shelby....mmmmm.
