The kits on fastbrakes seem like a good price. Probably would be good if you want something that looks a lot better and performs a little better.

It's basically $1k for the rotors and pads. . . The TL calipers are only $600 a pair.

TrackStar: Is that $600 new from a dealer? It may have a custom bracket to mount the calipers. It would be nice to know if you can buy off the shelf rotors from a TL as well.

I googled some oem acura parts and they sell for like $306 a piece. On fastbrakes.com or somewhere, I read the Brembos are a special "honda fitment" most likely pertaining only to the mounting points. Who know?

back from the dead..

i emailed them and they said they drilled the bracket on the brembo and replaced it with threads that will fit a 12mm bolt which is the one used on the s2000s. the bolt and thread size on this kit is 14mm. once that is done they said it just bolts right up.

i found the calipers for a good price and if i'm able to find a wheel and make the caliper fit. the caliper seems to be bigger than the one offered from brembo for the s200s so making it fit will be interesting especially since i want to run 245 in the front. i will most likely have to roll my fenders now. i will post my results

ericshun: Are you going to use the stock s2000 rotor? or the TL rotor?
