Yes, 2008 SS/TC rear brakes. 292mm x 20mm (for reference, SS/SC FRONTS are 296x26)

Little rusty, they are used, will clean right up.

Your car is going to be like a racecar when your done. A kinda slow racecar .

Nice brakes man. Its good to see someone working on the ls that is actually working on improving the suspension, and not just the engine.

thanks Maven, you know, it would be easier if you just hosted them here, or on imageshack, or imgtree. but, i guess that would defeat the point of taking advantage of picking on yours truly. It's ok, i understand.

i think the main reason for getting these is he was able to get them dirt cheap. may not be any performance difference at all.
