If you want the calipers for Auto-X, DON'T DO IT. I think you can just heat up your pads after the session ends. If you track the car then calipers will be very useful for braking power and heat dissipation.

[QUOTE=midnightmethane@aol.com,Nov 20 2006, 10:29 AM] but honestly for looks, save $1,500 or more and just paint your calipers.... and get a honda or s2000 decal for the side....believe me when painted, the calipers look great...but i would have a professional painter do em...get them gringed down the the casting marks are gone and you have a flush caliper...hey should apply a thick primer and then i would do them in black...subtle and yet sweet looking....i have em in black w/silver honda stickers....i got the stickers from

i looked into those and someone told me more along lines of 15-18mm....dude it's totally not worth it!!!!....i'm looking into either Powerslot rotors or SubZero rotors....Powerslots come just slotted and SubZero comes have both slots and drilled on the rotor...brake pads are another issue, but i'm gonna stay with stock when it comes time to change them....long life, low dust and the grip is great on the street and not to mention the low price....i'll post or send pics later this week
