the 3.0 already have the braket. So all we need is the calipers. Rotors i'm not sure.

steve. I won't be getting the big brake, just changing out the calipers to the nsx ones since its dual pistons. Been thinking about it for over a year already but i keep spending money on other things. haha

congrats. Hopefully you're planning on tearing that f23 apart and rebuilding it, boosting, spraying, or dropping an h series, cause thats alot more stopping power for just a measly 150/150~. (dont worry, I'm worse off myself.)

Good luck. Interested in seeing these pics.
