I still have stock brakes on the fox. Is 5-lug swapped axles. Disc up front and drums in the rear. I want disc all the way around and also want to know if its possible to do Brembo style front and rear. How do I go about doing so?

Basically same as m-2300-k kit except adding the cobra R brembo kit. Keep in mind you'll need 18" wheels

Well, they don't anymore. Long discontinued. Still it has a parts list and step by step on how to.

You can still get this though

Wow, if I put brembos on the 'exxon valdez' would that be lime lipstick on a pig (or a really ugly pony in my case)?
