WTB ss/tc brembo calipers

As the title says, I'm looking for some calipers. I drive a g6 and wanted to see if I could get some used brembos to help stop a my huge car. I am looking for calipers and rotors if possible, but I'm hoping to save money by finding some used parts to lower the cost a bit.
Any help is appreciated!

New calipers arent crazy expensive, might look into new ones as used are going to be very difficult to aquire at a good price.

I know that they bolt right on and I am sure guys are using them, but they reall arent the proper size for a G6(piston area wise) Youre best bet is gonna be to look on the Saab sites. See if anyone is parting out a 314mm brake 9-3, also 314 is a common upgrade kit for the Saabs, you used to be able to get complete front kit (calipers, rotors, pads) for arounf $500-600 tops. If you search around I am sure you still can

I realize that, and I'm saving up my money for this conversion but I figured if I could save some green and get something used right away I would take the chance. As for the saab, to get the parts new would be just as expensive, and maybe more so. The saab conversion also involves more work. The calipers are slightly too big (width wise) for the G6, but a 5mm spacer solves that issue easily.
