ok so i was just looking on stillens site. There is the AP racing BBK "front" and the Stillen BBK "not sure". So couple ?'s

1. Whats the difference in the two kits?

2. Does the Stillen BBK include all four brakes meaning frnt and bk?http://www.stillen.com/product...LTIMA

3. I thought there wasnt a CAI ? or am i just retarted and suck at reading lol http://www.stillen.com/product...LTIMA

Ok so if the stillen one is all 4 brakes than why would you even consider the AP racing considering they are about 500 more plus there only fronts.

ps im making my list of things i need b4 next season. Im starting to save/get it ready now.......big plans=mad money

I think the AP is a 4 piston brake kit and the the Stillen is 2.

its your car and i'm not going to tell you what you can and can not do to it but isn't your car a 2.5s? if so, are you planning Turbo? i mean, unless your going super crazy with the car, i dont see how spending thousands on brakes can be worth it. i mean my factory brakes are crazy and i plan to get better pads and rotors and maybe the better brake lines but thats it... up to you though.

but as for your question, the Stillen one says it comes with 2 calipers and 2 rotors so i'd assume just the front.

Lol

They all write that crap. Its a WAI it just takes air from outside the engine bay.

As hussain said - that is alot of coin for a bbk. Whats wrong with new rotors pads and SS lines? 500 bucks vs 5000 bucks

Correct

Also correct

AP offers both front/rear and Stillen offers Front (matching rear rotors available)
