Hey all-
I recently purchased some 13" slotted brembo rotors, the 10th Anniv Cobra Calipers, and Some MM stainless lines. I purchased the components separately so I could get the slotted rotors, and the slightly better MM lines, but I was just wanting to make sure that I didn't need any new caliper brackets for the swap. I didn't see them included in any of the pre-assembled kits, but figured I would rather be safe than get part way through the swap and find myself frustrated due to lack of parts. Thanks for your help.

The kit will come with it......instead of bolting on seperately like the GT brakes do it is bolted to the caliper which actually holds the pads on the calipers.......you will like it alot!

Get a 17" spare tire if you don't have one already.

These got everything covered, but don't over look new banjo bolts.

make sure you use the correct banjo bolt, only diffrence is one is fine thread the other is coarse thread...

One thing I forgot to mention...when I did mine (Bullitt calipers-same as Cobra only red with a pony) I pulled off my rears and painted them to match. Since I had all 4 corners off I got a set of Speedbleeders. I'm thinking they were around $35 shipped and they made bleeding the brakes A LOT easier.
