Rotors-$96
Calipers-$152.50

Was this a deal or not? I just have to get some stainless steel brake lines. Where is a good place to get them? Thanks.

About what I would expect. Brand new calipers go for $120/each, brand new Brembo rotors for about $100/each.

So you're saying I got a deal?? The auction says they have less then 150 miles on them so they're pretty new. I hope he's right.

From the pictures it's hard to tell -- if I had to guess I'd say more than 150 miles. But since the quality of the pics is low, who knows.

I'm saying you didn't get the deal of a lifetime, nor did you get screwed.

As for the SS brake lines, I am purchasing mine from Maximum Motorsports. Some things I don't leave to chance or no-name brands ... braking is one of them .

Yeah, I got some 17x9, 17x10.5 Cobra Rs(replicas) waiting for tires. When I get time to do this(brakes) I'll get tires and throw everything together at once.
