I doubt UPS would screw up the delivery of your packages so much that they'd end up in MD instead of NY Phil

It's going to be at least 3 weeks before they are installed. I'm waiting on SS lines that Rotora had to make for me and for powdercoated calipers.

looks pretty quality, i already have slots on the front but not rotora, hope that the rear set will match the front, you dont need to wait 3 weeks to install the cooling products tho, especially the radiator cap

I'm moving the rest of this week. Packed things up today. Mugen mods should go on next week i'd guess.

Moving out of an apartment to my Aunt's house to save money... Housing prices in Ellicott City are too hot not to! Impossible to afford a $350k townhouse or a $500-$800k single family house around here without saving money for a while.

How long did you have to wait for those to arrive? I've been waiting almost 3 weeks now for mine. Apparently the fronts are in...still waiting on the rears.

I bought them through a vendor in the Black Market, not the group buy though. He had them left over from his short-lived GB.

I saved ~ $60

^^ I didn't go through the group buy and my vendor had them instock. Although I am waiting on the SS lines to come in, Rotora had to make them.

Shipping took about a week, but I'm on the East Coast.

Have about 200 miles on that setup ..

make sure to clean them before you put them on. Mine squealed like hell for a while. Its getting better but still there on light stops. I was getting vibrations from the stock brakes, they lessened with this setup but there are still vibrations .. I guess its something other than the brakes? wtf else could be shaking my steering wheel? wheels and tires have been rebalanced 3 times. cant be that.
