The time has come to get rid of the ugly old rusty brake rotors that are killin me to look at! I did a 5 lug conversion last winter but ran out of funds to get the rotors and caliper i wanted. Im running 18" Shelby razors with front spindles off of a 2000 GT, sn95 axles with 2000 gt rear calipers. I wanna get some nice zinc plated cross drilled and slotted rotors to go along with the Cobra R calipers I bought. Ive been reading that a Fox with sn95 spindles can actually get away with 14" rotos up front, i think that would look pretty sick, but i wanna make sure itll work before i try!
 
The kits i've seen are custom made brackets that bolt to the SN95 spindle, and then mount up the 14" rotor and the Brembo associated with the 14" rotor.

The Cobra R brembo you have is really for 13" rotors. Unsure if it would be located correctly if you use the brackets for the larger GT500 brembos on it.

The kits i've seen only use the GT500 brembo and the 14" rotor. WIll need 18's of course which you have.

The 13" Cobra R setup is more than enough brake for a light fox. Tires will probably be the limiting factor. Unless of course, you want the 14" rotors for show...which I don't blame you.
