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 : 160-2898 (R/H), 160-2899 (L/H), 11.75x1.25, 40.98$ each, 81.96$ total
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)

When the rotors are less than 1/3 the cost of the OEM rotors... it may make you second guess your purchase.
If your brakes fail, you are NOT going to be happy.
