Hi Guys,

The Car Is 95 S14 Cobalt Green bought it For ~3000K In Jun-'07 From Tx...The Car Was in a ok condition....then 1k miles the front main seal took a crap @ me on the highway....So I Replaced With A New One....

Then I Got EVO IX BBS Rims (17x8+35)

Then I've got EVO IX BREMBO Brakes Front And Rear (front are 320mm rotor and 4 piston caliper - Rear Are 296m rotor and 2 piston caliper)

Then I've made an adapter plate for the front brakes and installed the front brakes And Installed the rims With Hankook S1 EVo Tires (235-45/17)



Then i rocked the evo brakes for 2 months...after that got my Custom made hood and NAVAN bumber

Ali

lol anyone else expecting a 5.56L or a 556ci swap? I can't think of any engines with those displacements, but i was hoping. then again it sounds like you want your car to turn.

are you runing some sort of parking brake?

Looking at the rear rotors, it looks like they have a drum e brake setup.

If so, what parking brake setup will you be using with these rear brakes?

Ao i'm runnig Stock S14 rear disc brake + e-brake.....when i install the Evo rear i'll lose the e-brake...

And no i can't swap the e-brake from a Z b/c the inner diameter of the evo rotor is too small for Z rear brakes

About Offset...i'll get 5mm spacer front to clear coilover...for rear i'll rock the BBS until my RPF1's arrive.

Thanks To All

Ali
