I've been searching for a budget brake upgrade with enough heat capacity and long pad life for track usage. I don't think big sized rotor is required to our applications, especially for my 16-inch wheel setup.

I've checked @diss7 's fitment checking thread and am sure that my SSR Type C 16x7.5 +35 will fit Sprint Kit.

But after noticing AP 8350 caliper is almost same form factor as Wilwood SL4R/SL6R, I'm thinking about combining Wilwood parts to make a similar brake as Sprint Kit.

What do you think?

Disc rotor : 160-11837 (R/H), 160-11838 (L/H), 11.75x1.25, 129.59$ each, 259.18$ total (parts changed)
Hat : 170-9206 (offset 1.1") 134.93$ each, 269.86$ total (offset is not fixed yet. have to calculate.)
Caliper : 120-13231 (Forged Superlite 4R), 248.34$ each, 496.68$ total
Pad : typical 7420
Bracket : 250-9208 (WRX BBK bracket), 147.32$ each, 294.64$ total (may require shortening 3mm)
