Are you saying if you could get the brackets made you can buy those calipers cheap used and put this kit together for less than $3,500?

For $3,500 you can buy a full front and back used stoptech or brembo BBK made to fit our cars and our master cylinder. No worrying about brake bias being off, needing an m3 MC, where to get rebuild kits or other parts, what pads fit, replacement fiction disks, comes with SS brake lines that fit etc.

Also, the stock calipers are just fine for 90% of people, you can always put in an aggressive pad.

I did a search for brembo ctsv brakes and they came up 1500.00 front and rears.from looking at that ad,it states custom brackets to fit so what can custom brackets cost? But again maybe add the MISC parts also guess that could add up.
Yeah the stock brakes with good pads should do well enough with good brake fluid.i will go out on a limb here and I think people would buy more for its looks with the benefits of stopping power as a plus.

It looks like stock CTSV calipers with aftermarket rotors? Anyone know what they are? Could explain the extreme price for what you get.
