No I bought fluid and track pads with mine. Everything else you need comes with the kit.

How would this change brake bias, potentially? We're talking about fronts only, right?
Ideally, you want your fronts and rears to lock-up simultaneously - that's the sign of correct bias. Of course, you can always adjust this by pad selection, like running Carbotech XP12s up front and XP10s in the rear, like lots of folks do.

I guess I never posted up in here. After test fitting on a 6 two things became apparent:
1. A larger diameter rotor would have to be used with these calipers.
2. The brackets I had made wouldn't work for this reason.
It might be more of a bolt on affair for the 3. I can look into this if I find some free time this week.
In other news I'm pursuing my own 4 piston caliper kit for the 6. It will allow for the use of 16" wheels. I'm already part way through development, I'm just waiting to receive my first set of calipers to ensure it will all fit up properly.

2 weeks 
Damond's "2 weeks" tend to be a lot faster, FWIH.
Wait a tic.....Corksport "2 weeks"??? or for realz 2 weeks???
So is there going to be a hookup on the calipers themselves too? Need new rotors?

I'm coming up on needing new brakes anyway. I'm interested.
