That looks good man!

Are those calipers fitted on your OEM rotors? I've always wondered if there was a caliper out there with better stopping power than the OEM ones, that would fit on OEM size rotors?

Thanks guys, yes these are OEM size rotors. And yes, they will be replaced with newer better ones lol

All in all, i had to cut the dust shields, trim the back of the pads, remove some brackets in the calipers, and you literally cannot slide a peice of paper between the caliper and rotor. Shaved down S2000 pads were used.
