so are these "PBR"s? what do i need to do to install them?
13" rotors and cobra/mach/bullitt brake lines. If you buy the calipers new, they will come with brackets...if you buy them used you may not have the same luck

and no you cannot use 99-up calipers with 13" rotors without major modification.
those calipers bolt right up the NO modification is nessicary. Youll need new brake line, Rotors, and banjo bolts, but you can buy the kit that includes everything you need.
i bought the black caliper set from them about 3 weeks ago. got here a day after being shipped.wow they were on sale too. $392 shipped. buyfordracing ...
RC...this should clear it up for good
PBR makes all of the twin piston calipers we see...GT/Mach/Bullitt/Cobra
that said, the PBRs that you currently have (99GT+) are not the same as the Mach/Cobra/Bullitt calipers. You cannot run the 99GT+ calipers on a 13" rotor. You can run the Mach/Cobra/Bullitt calipers on a 13" rotor.
Both calipers are made by PBR, but they are not the exact same design
yes. to either bullitt/mach/cobra/brembosThanks...makes sense... So if I want 13" rotors, need to change calipers too, eh? (canadian)
correct.Cant keep the PBR's if I want to change rotors?
ya but i would suggest upgrading to the cobra rear kit. its the same calipers just larger rotors, different brackets, and will "match" up nicer to the larger front rotorsIf I throw Brembos on the front, I guess I can leave the back brakes stock just as they are huh?

2 more questions (this is good stuff)
1. Can I just get a Cobra Rotor for the back??? I have already painted the caliper. ... I mean, will it help to ONLY get the Cobra Rotors for the back?
2. Should I get slotted or cross drilled for the fronts and plain for the rear, or should I get plain for both (I will def. get only plain for the rear)
