Damn it they would have made a nice addtion to my build
No real huge gains from running brembos unless you like to auto cross. But they are sick looking. Some TC guys will ditch the brembos for lsj calipers so they can run better slicks for the track.

Even track racing the LSJ brake as far as brake distance are just as good, the biggest thing is the brake fade and looks.

Anyone have any idea of how to find out if the rpd is fried or not?
Red ss tc seats?
How much?
How much for the rims?
How much for the sts?
Are you planning on keeping the rpd if it works? Is the guage pod still in good condition?

Doing a shorty header won't be as bad. You should be able I get it though the bottom. I had to take my valve cover off and go through the top with the long tube. Just tightening the bottom manifold bolts is a PITA.

Yes and no. This one has the torques sequence and specs and a intersting fact that the 07's dont have an o2 sensor on the manifold both are on the down pipe, so i will need a plug for the one on the header.

Sorry im Not trying to give you crap or saying you don't know. But for the most part it's a very simple swap. Just time consuming because it's and extremely tight fit.
